CB1 receptor antagonist rimonabant protects against chronic intermittent hypoxia-induced renal injury in rats
Abstract Background Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) induced chronic kidney disease is mainly caused by chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH). Our study investigate the mechanism underlying CIH-induced renal damage and whether the cannabinoid receptor 1 (CB1R) antagonist rimonabant (Ri) alleviates CIH-in...
