In this study, the blocking of autophagy flux was observed in both CP-treated HK-2 cells in vitro and CP-AKI mouse models in vivo, whereas this blocking was reversed by PD, which was characterized by the increase of autophagy microtubule-associated protein light chain 3 II expression and autophagolysosome/autophagosome ratio and the decrease of p62 expression. This evidence concerns the gene SQSTM1 and Parkinson disease.
