Milk fat globule-epidermal growth factor-factor VIII attenuates sepsis-induced acute kidney injury

Treatment with rmMFG-E8 reduces renal tissue injury induced by sepsis through inhibiting the production of proinflammatory cytokines and chemokine, as well as through the activation of endothelial cells. Thus, MFG-E8 may have a therapeutic potential for treating AKI induced by sepsis.
