Renal interstitial fibrosis is reduced in high-fat diet-induced obese pigs following renal denervation from the intima and adventitia of the renal artery
Abstract Background This study aims to compare whether two different routes of Renal denervation (RDN) from the intima and adventitia of the renal artery can reduce renal fibrosis in a pig model of hypertension induced by a high-fat diet and to explore possible molecular mechanisms. Methods Twenty-f...

The model group was randomly divided into the intima-RDN group (n=6), the adventitia-RDN group (n=6), or the renal arteriography only group (sham group, n=6). All animals were fed separately. The model group was fed a high-fat diet after the operation, and the control group was fed conventionally for 6 months. After 6 months, renal artery angiography was performed again to observe the condition of the renal arteries, after which all animals were euthanized.
