Fig. 7

Schematic representation of AMPK α2 contributing to acute and chronic hyperuricemic nephropathy. AMPK α2 suppresses uric acid excretion through uric acid transporters. Accumulation of uric acid increased uric acid deposition, which further leads to the formation of a renal small tube type, inflammatory cell infiltration, and renal fibrosis
