Abstract

There is still no established treatment for acute kidney injury (AKI), and the intervention of AKI remains limited to supportive treatments. Li et al. demonstrated the mechanism by which immune tolerance by dendritic cell ameliorates AKI in a mouse ischemia-reperfusion injury model. The phase I/II clinical trials of tolerogenic dendritic cell therapy have been conducted for kidney transplantation, so it is expected to have potential as a cell therapy for AKI in the future.
