Nephrol Dial Transplant . 2023 Mar; 38(10):2232-2247. PMID: 36914214
Background: Thromboembolic events are prevalent in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients due to increased thrombin generation leading to a hypercoagulable state. We previously demonstrated that inhibition of protease-activated receptor-1 (PAR-1)...

Yiu W, Lok S, Xue R, Chen J, Lai K, Lan H, et al.
Clin Sci (Lond) . 2023 Jan; 137(5):317-331. PMID: 36705251
Kidney inflammation contributes to the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Modulation of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) signaling is a potential therapeutic strategy for this pathology, but the regulatory mechanisms...

Li H, Leung J, Yiu W, Chan L, Li B, Lok S, et al.
Cell Death Dis . 2022 Dec; 13(12):1061. PMID: 36539406
Mitochondria take part in a network of intracellular processes that regulate homeostasis. Defects in mitochondrial function are key pathophysiological changes during AKI. Although Wnt/β-catenin signaling mediates mitochondrial dysfunction in chronic...

Li B, Leung J, Chan L, Li H, Yiu W, Lok S, et al.
Mol Ther Nucleic Acids . 2021 Dec; 26():1280-1290. PMID: 34853727
Lipotoxicity has been implicated in the pathogenesis of obesity-related kidney damage and propagates chronic kidney injury like diabetic kidney disease; however, the underlying mechanisms have not yet been fully elucidated....

Li B, Leung J, Chan L, Yiu W, Li Y, Lok S, et al.
Stem Cells Transl Med . 2019 May; 8(9):898-910. PMID: 31054183
Recent advances in the understanding of lipid metabolism suggest a critical role of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in obesity-induced kidney injury. Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) is a pleiotropic cytokine frequently...
