Abstract: Hypertension, a prevalent chronic ailment, has the potential to impair kidney function, and thereby
resulting in hypertensive nephropathy. The escalating incidence of hypertensive nephropathy attributed to the
aging population in urban areas, has emerged as a prominent cause of end-stage renal disease. Nevertheless,
the intricate pathogenesis of hypertensive nephropathy poses considerable obstacles in terms of precise clinical
diagnosis and treatment. This paper aims to consolidate the research findings on the pathogenesis of hypertensive
nephropathy by focusing on the perspective of molecular biology.
