Mechanism of Astragaloside IV in Treatment of Renal Tubulointerstitial Fibrosis.

Tubulointerstitial fibrosis (TIF) is one of the key indicators in evaluating the renal function of patients.

Therefore, studying the mechanisms underlying TIF is essential to identify therapeutic targets, thereby protecting the renal function of patients with timely intervention.
