Deskripsi
Alteration of circadian rhythms is often observed in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Here, the authors show that CKD-induced dysfunction of the circadian clock increases the expression of G protein-coupled receptor 68 in circulating monocytes and that their cardiac infiltration exacerbates inflammation and fibrosis of heart.
