Abstract Chronic kidney diseases result from recurrent or progressive injuries in
glomeruli, tubules, interstitium and/or vasculature. In order to study
pathogenesis, mechanisms and effects of interventions, many animal models have
been developed, including spontaneous, genetic and induced models. However,
these models do not exactly simulate human diseases, and most of them are
strain, gender or age dependent. We review key information on various rodent
models of chronic kidney diseases.
