Abstract

Experiments of 42 outbred male albino rats (160-180 g) showed an increase in the content of CD64, fibroblast growth factor, and proapoptotic proteins (p53 and p21) in the renal cortical matter on day 45 of experimental chronic Masugi nephritis. A positive correlation between CD64 and fibroblast growth factor characterizes the macrophage-fibroblast interactions, the key point in the formation of tubulo-interstitial fibrosis.
