In a unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) mouse model, we observed significantly increased interstitial fibrosis and renal tubule dilatation by Masson’s Trichrome and H&E staining, and markedly increased expression of CCL17, vimentin, collagen I, and α-SMA by IHC stain, qRTPCR, and western blotting. This evidence concerns the gene ACTA1 and Ureteral obstruction.
