2,5‐Dihydroxyacetophenone attenuates acute kidney injury induced by intra‐abdominal infection in rats

As one of the most serious complications of sepsis, acute kidney injury (AKI) is pathologically associated with excessive inflammation. 2,5-Dihydroxyacetophenone (DHAP) is isolated from Radix rehmanniae praeparata and exhibit potent anti-inflammatory property. This research aimed at determining the role of DHAP in sepsis-associated AKI (SA-AKI) and the underlying mechanism.
