Acute Kidney Injury-to-Chronic Kidney Disease Transition-Associated Macrophage Subtypes: Biological Functions and Intercellular Crosstalk

Key takeaways

This is a review of what earlier studies found about immune cells called macrophages during the shift from a sudden kidney injury to long-term kidney disease. It sorts out the different types of these cells and describes how they signal to the cells around them. It is a summary of work already published, not a new study, so there are no fresh results here.
