Funded Activity Summary

Acute injury can lead to chronic immune activation in both chronic kidney disease and in transplantation. We will study the role of a class of molecules, the purines, that are released by injury and lead to immune activation. We will focus on the molecular variations and pharmacological blockade of their receptors as potential treatments for kidney disease and transplant graft failure.
