Bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells (BMMCs) have shown beneficial effects on tissue repair, largely attributed to the paracrine action of bioactive mediators such as lysophosphatidic acid (LPA). This study aimed to evaluate the effects of BMMC treatment in a rat model of renal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury, focusing on LPA-related molecular pathways. Male Wistar rats were divided into three groups: control; I/R, subjected to bilateral renal artery clamping for 30 min followed by 24 h of reperfusion; and I/R + BMMC, which received 1 × 10 Show less
