Protective effect of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma agonists on activated renal proximal tubular epithelial cells in IgA nephropathy.
BACKGROUND We have previously demonstrated a glomerulo-tubular 'crosstalk' operating in the pathogenesis of tubulointerstitial injury in IgA nephropathy (IgAN). The present study aims to explore any possible beneficial effect of a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPAR-gamma) agonist in alleviating the tubulointerstitial inflammation in IgAN. METHODS Human proximal tubular epi...
متن کاملPeroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma agonists in renal disease.
Type 2 diabetes is a well recognised cause of chronic renal failure (CRF). Only few oral antidiabetic drugs can be used for treating type 2 diabetes in patients with CRF. Among them are repaglinide, a rapid-acting prandial insulin releaser, and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma) agonists, such as rosiglitazone and pioglitazone. These compounds are metabolised in the li...
متن کاملRole of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha and gamma in antiangiogenic effect of pomegranate peel extract
Objective(s): Herbal medicines are promising cancer preventive candidates. It has been shown that Punica granatum L. could inhibit angiogenesis and tumor invasion. In this study, we investigated whether the anti-angiogenic effect of pomegranate peel extract (PPE) is partly attributable to Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) activation in the Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cell...
متن کاملActivation of tubular epithelial cells in diabetic nephropathy and the role of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma agonist.
The effects of advanced glycation end products (AGE) in the form of glycated albumin (GA) on the proinflammatory phenotype of cultured renal proximal tubular epithelial cells (PTEC) and the therapeutic potential of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPAR-gamma) agonist were studied. Human PTEC were exposed to medium alone or supplemented with albumin or GA with or without pre...
