Research Abstract |
CD45^<+/>Collagen I^+ dual positive cells migrate into fibrotic kidney dependent on chemokine system, which may promote and escalate chronic inflammatory processes and possible interaction with resident stromal cells, thereby perpetuating renal fibrosis. In addition, our present data suggest the possible involvement of CD45^+/Collagen I^+ dual positive cells in cardiac fibrosis, closely related to renal lesions. Furthermore, the detection of CD45^+/Collagen I^+ dual positive cells in circulation has been established in this study.
