An ERK1\/2 pathway inhibitor, trametinib, is currently used in the treatment of melanoma, but its efficacy in the setting of CKD and renal fibrosis has not been explored.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We investigated whether trametinib has antifibrotic effects in two mouse models of renal fibrosis\u2014mice subjected to unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) or fed an adenine-rich diet\u2014as well as in cultured primary human fibroblasts.
