A recent study reports using the renal ischemia or reperfusion-induced AKI rodent model showed that the FGFC1 with 10 mg/kg lowered or inhibited pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β and TNF-α, respectively) expression (Shibata et al., 2021; Hashimoto et al., 2022). This evidence concerns the gene TNF and acute kidney injury.
