Figure 4. Mitochondrial structural and functional alterations in chronic renal ischemia.

Figure 4.

Experimental RVD alters renal mitochondrial biogenesis and mitophagy and decreases cardiolipin content. Activation of the NADPH oxidase complex in response to mechanical stretch favors ROS generation, whereas activation of angiotensin (Ang)-II receptors in the inner mitochondrial membrane may compromise mitochondrial respiration and promote local ROS generation.
