End stage renal disease, in particular renal fibrosis as pathological result, forces patients into a hard therapy and increases mortality rate. The following in vivo studies are about calcium-activated potassium channels, in particular KCa3.1, and their crucial importance in progressing renal fibrosis. A pharmacological blockade of the channel could be an important starting point for the future.
