1 8647942 The cytoskeletal linking proteins, moesin and radixin, are upregulated by platelet-derived growth factor, but not basic fibroblast growth factor in experimental mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis.
2 8647942 The expression of the two cytoskeletal linking proteins, moesin and radixin, was examined in experimental mesangial proliferative nephritis in rats (anti-Thy1 model).
3 8647942 Moesin and radixin mRNA and protein are constitutively expressed in all cell types of normal rat glomeruli, except podocytes.
4 8647942 In the anti-Thy1 model the expression of moesin and radixin was increased in infiltrating macrophages and in activated, alpha-smooth muscle actin-positive mesangial cells and was concentrated in the cellular extensions of mesangial cells in areas of glomerular remodelling.
5 8647942 Studies using neutralizing antibodies demonstrated that the increase in moesin and radixin expression by mesangial cells is mediated by PDGF, but not bFGF.
6 8647942 The increase in these cytoskeletal proteins appears to be regulated primarily (radixin) or partially (moesin) posttranscriptionally.
7 8647942 The data suggest that PDGF mediated upregulation of the cytoskeletal proteins, moesin and radixin, is important for cell migration and other changes that accompany the coordinated restoration of glomerular architecture after injury.
8 9371576 In the above cells, persistent infection induced the de novo synthesis of platelet-derived growth factor A/B and enhanced the release of transforming growth factor beta1/2.
9 9513903 Six-hour stimulation of mesangial cells with interferon-gamma or platelet-derived growth factor significantly increased MIF mRNA levels.
10 9513903 However, the addition of recombinant MIF to mesangial cells did not affect mesangial cell proliferation or constitutive transforming growth factor-beta mRNA expression, nor did MIF induce monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 mRNA expression.
11 10482316 Augmentation of kidney injury by basic fibroblast growth factor or platelet-derived growth factor does not induce progressive diabetic nephropathy in the Goto Kakizaki model of non-insulin-dependent diabetes.
12 10482316 Specifically, we examined whether the administration of either platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) or basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) in sub-nephritogenic doses might lead to an aggravation of kidney structural changes associated with hyperglycemia, resulting in progressive kidney damage in the Goto Kakizaki (GK) rat, which is a genetic model of non-obese non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM), in which progressive kidney disease does not develop spontaneously.
13 10482316 The results demonstrate that the administration of PDGF to hyperglycemic GK rats led to acute mesangial cell proliferation and activation as assessed by 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine-positive nuclei and immunostaining for alpha-smooth muscle actin.
14 10482316 Augmentation of kidney injury by basic fibroblast growth factor or platelet-derived growth factor does not induce progressive diabetic nephropathy in the Goto Kakizaki model of non-insulin-dependent diabetes.
15 10482316 Specifically, we examined whether the administration of either platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) or basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) in sub-nephritogenic doses might lead to an aggravation of kidney structural changes associated with hyperglycemia, resulting in progressive kidney damage in the Goto Kakizaki (GK) rat, which is a genetic model of non-obese non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM), in which progressive kidney disease does not develop spontaneously.
16 10482316 The results demonstrate that the administration of PDGF to hyperglycemic GK rats led to acute mesangial cell proliferation and activation as assessed by 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine-positive nuclei and immunostaining for alpha-smooth muscle actin.
