Abstract
Tissue remodeling in kidney disease involves sterile inflammation, because tissue necrosis, in acute kidney injury, produces endogenous agonists to innate pattern recognition receptors that trigger innate immunity. In chronic kidney disease, however, a functional role of such pattern recognition receptors is questionable. Here we summarize and discuss the current evidence on a potential contribution of canonical and non-canonical pattern recognition receptor signaling in chronic kidney disease.
