abstract：BACKGROUND:Macrophage (Mphi) infiltration may contribute to chronic renal injury. We therefore sought to examine the expression of genes associated with Mphi recruitment in the rat remnant kidney model. METHODS:Male Munich Wistar rats underwent 5/6 nephrectomy or sham operation (SHM, N = 18) and received no treatment ...
