More Details: Renal tubular atrophy is a hallmark of chronic kidney disease. The study by Zhu et al. reveals the protective role of tubular polynucleotide phosphorylase (PNPT1) against renal atrophy by blocking the leakage of mitochondrial dsRNAs into cytoplasm where they activate the PKReIF2α axis and terminate translation.
