Subsequent ischaemic episodes may induce renal resistance. P21 is a cell cycle inhibitor that may be induced by oxygen-free radicals and may have a protective effect in ischaemic acute kidney injury (AKI). This study aimed at evaluating the role of oxidative stress and p21 on tubular resistance in a model of acquired resistance after renal ischaemia and in isolated renal tubules.
