These findings indicate that the expression of HO-1 in the ischemic kidney may be critical in the recovery of renal cell function in this animal model. These findings also suggest that H0-1 induction may play an important role in conferring protection on renal cells from oxidative damage caused by heme.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
