Distinct cellular pathways for resistance to urea stress and hypertonic stress.
During antidiuresis with elevated vasopressin, urea accumulates in the renal medulla to very high concentrations, imposing considerable cellular stress. How local cells cope with urea stress is relevant to the whole kidney because the renal medulla is the major site of residence for the renal stem cells. Previous studies showed that renal cells were incapable of preconditioning in moderate urea...
متن کاملTonEBP stimulates multiple cellular pathways for adaptation to hypertonic stress: organic osmolyte-dependent and -independent pathways.
TonEBP (tonicity-responsive enhancer binding protein) is a transcription factor that promotes cellular accumulation of organic osmolytes in the hypertonic renal medulla by stimulating expression of its target genes. Genetically modified animals with deficient TonEBP activity in the kidney suffer from severe medullary atrophy in association with cell death, demonstrating that TonEBP is essential...
متن کاملUrea stress is more akin to EGF exposure than to hypertonic stress in renal medullary cells.
Although urea is considered to be a cell stressor even in renal medullary cells perpetually exposed to this solute in vivo by virtue of the renal concentrating mechanism, aspects of urea signaling resemble that of a peptide mitogen. Urea was compared with epidermal growth factor and hypertonic NaCl or hypertonic mannitol using a large-scale expression array-based approach. The expression profil...
متن کاملThermal Stress Resistance to Fracture and its Relation to with Resistance to Thermal Fatigue and Shock
Dense Silicon nitride was investigated to determine the effect of its microstructural parameters and densification on thermo-mechanical properties and thermal stress resistance to fracture initiation during a hot or cold mechanical and thermal shock testing. The different materials and microstructures were obtained by changing the parameters such as the type of the powder, additive, forming p...
