These data highlight opposing cell-specific effects of IL-1 receptor signaling on AKI following toxin exposure. Disrupting pathways activated by IL-1R1 in the tubule, while preserving those triggered by IL-1R1 activation on endothelial cells, may afford renoprotection exceeding that of global IL-1R1 inhibition while mitigating unwanted actions of IL-1R1 blockade.
