AB  - Mesenchymal stem cell is becoming a promising candidate in acute kidney injury 
      (AKI). We first reported that human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells 
      (hucMSCs) could ameliorate renal function in ischemic/reperfusion AKI rats, but 
      the role of hucMSCs in cisplatin-induced acute and chronic injury has been 
      demonstrated. More specifically, it is still unknown whether hucMSCs halt renal 
      interstitial fibrosis. In this study, we investigated the effect of hucMSCs in 
      cisplatin-induced kidney injury and explored the mechanism of action. Blood urea 
      nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine (Cr) analyses showed amelioration of functional 
      parameters in hucMSC-treated rats at early damage. Transplantation with hucMSCs 
      promoted renal cell regeneration, inhibited cell apoptosis, abrogated 
      inflammatory responses and protected mitochondria. Moreover, Masson's trichrome 
      staining demonstrated reduced levels of fibrosis in kidney tissues of 
      hucMSC-treated rats at six and eight weeks after cisplatin injection. These 
      results were corroborated by reduced collagen deposit, the ratio of Bax to Bcl-2 
      and transforming growth factor beta mRNA expression. Furthermore, hucMSCs prevented 
      the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in injury renal tissues, leading to 
      the attenuation of chronic renal interstitial fibrosis. Taken together, our 
      findings suggested that hucMSCs could decrease the kidney from development of 
      later renal interstitial fibrosis by amelioration of early AKI.
