Fibroblast growth factor 10 ameliorates renal ischaemia-reperfusion injury by attenuating mitochondrial damage.

Ischaemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury is one of the leading causes of acute kidney injury (AKI). Its pathologic mechanism is quite complex, involving oxidative stress, inflammatory response, autophagy, and apoptosis. Fibroblast growth factor 10 (FGF10) and 5-hydroxydecanoate (5-HD) play essential roles in kidney injury.
