“…Blockade of TLR2, however, has recently been tested in humans and is in phase 2 trials in the United States and Europe (OPN-305; Opsona Therapeutics). 31 Virtually all immune cells have been implicated in AKI, and some are thought to be deleterious (e.g., neutrophils, 10,16 monocytes/macrophages, 25,32 DCs, 33,34 NKT cells, 17,35 NK cells, 19 and B cells 18,36 ), whereas others are likely protective (e.g., Tregs 20,21 ). Others, such as macrophages, play different roles depending on the type and time at which they arrive in the injured tissue.…”
