REN and congenital rubella syndrome: Results: Across acute and chronic CRS models, omics consistently converge on extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling and fibrosis (e.g., FN1, POSTN, collagens), immune–inflammatory activation (IL-6 axis, macrophage/complement signatures), renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system hyperactivity, oxidative stress, and metabolic/mitochondrial derangements in both organs.
