Role of the Oncogene E26 Transformation-Specific Sequence-1 in Arteriovenous Fistula Maturation Failure

Semester: Spring 2025


Presentation description

This project aimed to investigate whether E26 transformation-specific sequence-1 (ETS-1) causes neointima hyperplasia after arteriovenous fistula (AVF) creation surgery in a rat model with chronic kidney disease. The leading hypothesis is that ETS-1 inhibition decreases neointima hyperplasia in the AVF following vascular injury. Histological methods and morphometric analysis determined no significant difference between the experimental groups.
