Recent findings from human and experimental septic AKI studies strongly implicate the
mitochondrion as an important target for sublethal kidney injury. Stimulating the natural
pathways through which mitochondrial function is normally recovered following sepsis
represents a promising strategy for the development of novel therapies.
