Fortunately, differentiated proximal tubule cells (PTCs) do have their own capacity to repair. To understand this repair process, first authors Louisa M. S. Gerhardt, Jing Liu, and their colleagues in ...

After this, they move into the distal tubule where the drugs can precipitate, crystalize, or form casts. This obstructs the tubules and causes tubular injury, which leads to acute tubular necrosis.
