The transcription factor ETS-1 regulates angiotensin II-stimulated fibronectin production in mesangial cells.

Angiotensin II (ANG II) produced as result of activation of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of chronic kidney disease via its hemodynamic effects on the renal microcirculation as well as by its nonhemodynamic actions including the production of extracellular matrix proteins such as fibronectin, a multifunctional extracellular matrix protein that play...

Angiotensin II increases the expression of the transcription factor ETS-1 in mesangial cells.

Maladaptive activation of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) has been shown to play a critical role in the pathogenesis of chronic kidney disease. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are critical signals for many of the nonhemodynamic effects of angiotensin II (ANG II). We have demonstrated that ANG II increases mesangial and cortical cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression and activity via NADPH oxidase...

Angiogenic property of hepatocyte growth factor is dependent on upregulation of essential transcription factor for angiogenesis, ets-1.

BACKGROUND Although hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) is an angiogenic growth factor, it is still unclear how it exerts its angiogenic effects. Thus, we focused on the role of an essential transcription factor for angiogenesis, ets-1. In this study, we addressed the following specific questions: (1) what genes responsible for angiogenesis can be regulated by HGF and (2) whether upregulation of gen...

In vivo evidence of angiogenesis induced by transcription factor Ets-1: Ets-1 is located upstream of angiogenesis cascade.

BACKGROUND A transcription factor, ets-1, regulates the transcription of metalloproteinase genes, the activity of which is necessary for matrix degradation and the migration of endothelial cells. However, no study has demonstrated that ets-1 itself has an angiogenic action in vivo. Thus, we examined (1) the effects of overexpression of the ets-1 gene on angiogenesis in a rat hindlimb ischemia m...
