Adverse metabolic conditions or pathogenic genetic variants that cause misfolding and accumulation of proteins within the ER of kidney cells initiate an injurious process known as ER stress that contributes to kidney disease and its cardiovascular complications. Initiation of ER stress activates the unfolded protein response (UPR), a cellular defence mechanism that functions to restore ER homeostasis. However, severe or chronic ER stress rewires the UPR to activate deleterious pathways that exacerbate inflammation, apoptosis and fibrosis, resulting in kidney injury. This insidious crosstalk between ER stress, UPR activation, oxidative stress and inflammation forms a vicious cycle that drives kidney disease and vascular damage. Furthermore, genetic variants that disrupt protein-folding mechanisms trigger ER stress, as evidenced in autosomal-dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease and Fabry disease. Emerging therapeutic strategies that enhance protein-folding capacity and reduce the burden of ER stress have shown promising results in kidney diseases. Thus, integrating knowledge of how genetic variants cause protein misfolding and ER stress into clinical practice will enhance treatment strategies and potentially improve outcomes for various kidney diseases and their vascular complications.</p>","PeriodicalId":19059,"journal":{"name":"Nature Reviews Nephrology","volume":"25 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":41.5,"publicationDate":"2025-02-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143477475","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Current treatments, including dialysis and transplantation, are costly and not curative. Kidney fibrosis, defined as an abnormal accumulation of extracellular matrix in the kidney parenchyma, is a common outcome in CKD, regardless of disease aetiology, and is a major cause of loss of kidney function and kidney failure. For this reason, research efforts have focused on identifying mediators of kidney fibrosis to inform the development of effective anti-fibrotic treatments. Given the prominent role of the transforming growth factor-β (TGFβ) family in fibrosis, efforts have focused on inhibiting TGFβ signalling. Despite hopes raised by the efficacy of this approach in preclinical models, translation into clinical practice has not met expectations. Antihypertensive and antidiabetic drugs slow the decline in kidney function and could slow fibrosis but, owing to the lack of technologies for in vivo renal imaging, their anti-fibrotic effect cannot be truly assessed at present. The emergence of new drugs targeting pro-fibrotic signalling, or enabling cell repair and cell metabolic reprogramming, combined with better stratification of people with CKD and the arrival of nanotechnologies for kidney-specific drug delivery, open up new perspectives for the treatment of this major public health challenge.</p>","PeriodicalId":19059,"journal":{"name":"Nature Reviews Nephrology","volume":"50 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":41.5,"publicationDate":"2025-02-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143393137","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
