Accumulating evidence has demonstrated that renal hypoxia has a crucial role in the pathogenesis of acute kidney injury (AKI), chronic kidney disease (CKD), and AKI-to-CKD transition, ultimately culminating in end-stage kidney disease. Renal hypoxia in progressive CKD is intricately linked to persisting capillary loss, which is mainly due to dysregulated angiogenesis.
