What is it about?

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a risk factor for developing chronic kidney disease (CKD). We showed that omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids prevent AKI to CKD and renal fibrosis. In addition, eicosapentaenoic acid metabolites 18-HEPE, 17,18-EpETE and 17,18-diHETE were found to have antifibrotic effect.
