BAX and acute kidney injury: Opposite results were observed by Zhang et al. [70], since they demonstrated that remote ischemic preconditioning, a strategy to induce resistance in a target organ, exerted a protective effect on DDP-induced AKI in mice by reversing the downregulation of miR-144 and the dysregulation of caspase-3, Bax, and Bcl-2 expression in renal tissues of DDP-induced AKI in mice and NRK-52 cells.
