BMP - 7 fails to attenuate TGF - β 1 - induced epithelial - to - mesenchymal transition in human proximal tubule epithelial cells Paul
Background. In rodent models of chronic renal disease bone morphogenetic protein-7 (BMP-7) has been shown to halt disease progression and promote recovery. Subsequent studies utilizing immortalized rodent renal cell lines showed that BMP-7 was renoprotective by antagonizing TGF-β1-stimulated epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT). The present study sought to determine if BMP7 prevents TGF-β...
متن کاملBMP-7 modulates hyaluronan-mediated proximal tubular cell-monocyte interaction.
Increased synthesis of hyaluronan (HA) in the renal corticointerstitium has been documented in renal injury, although the functional significance of this is unclear. The aim of the work presented in the current study was to examine the role of HA in monocyte binding by proximal tubular cells (PTC). Using the PTC line HK-2, the authors show that unstimulated cells formed pericellular HA cable-li...

In the subsequent 20-min interval after intra-aortic injection of these test solutions, capillary protein concentration remained at (isoncotic infusions) or returned to (colloid-free and hyperoncotic fluids) control values. Whereas reabsorption after colloid-free solutions returned to base line levels in parallel with the return in capillary protein concentration, after colloid infusions (which...
متن کاملRenal Proximal Tubule
Angiotensin II (Ang II) is an important regulator of proximal tubule salt and water reabsorption. Recent studies indicate that rabbit proximal tubule angiotensin II receptors are the type-1 (AT1R) subtype. We studied the effect of Ang II on proximal tubule receptor expression. Rabbits were treated with either angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors or a low salt diet to modulate endogenous Ang...

Previous data suggested an active Clconductance in the renal proximal convoluted tubule, although single channel conductance and regulation were not found. We have investigated the presence and regulation of the C1channel in proximal convoluted tubules by patch clamp analysis. The current-voltage relationship of whole cells with 130 mM NaCI in the pipette was nonlinear. The addition of 1-34 PTH...
