120 23645677 Gain-of-function mutations in transient receptor potential C6 (TRPC6) activate extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1/2 (ERK1/2).
121 23645677 The ERK1/2 MAPKs are activated in glomeruli and podocytes in several proteinuric disease models.
122 23645677 In 293T cells and cultured podocytes, overexpression of gain-of-function TRPC6 mutants resulted in increased ERK1/2 phosphorylation, an effect dependent upon channel function.
123 23645677 Through medium transfer experiments, we uncovered two distinct mechanisms for ERK activation by mutant TRPC6, a cell-autonomous, EGF receptor-independent mechanism and a non-cell-autonomous mechanism involving metalloprotease-mediated release of a presumed EGF receptor ligand.
124 23645677 Phosphorylation of Thr-70, Ser-282, and Tyr-31/285 were not necessary for ERK activation by mutant TRPC6, although a phosphomimetic TRPC6 S282E mutant was capable of ERK activation.

132 22467748 This indicates that the HB-EGF/EGFR pathway plays a pivotal role in RPGN and opens therapeutic perspectives as EGFR inhibitors are clinically available.

134 22319602 Heparin binding epidermal growth factor (HBEGF) is expressed in podocytes and was shown to play a role in glomerular physiology.
135 21946538 We show de novo induction of heparin-binding epidermal growth factor-like growth factor (HB-EGF) in intrinsic glomerular epithelial cells (podocytes) from both mice and humans with RPGN.
136 21946538 HB-EGF induction increases phosphorylation of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR, also known as ErbB1) in mice with RPGN.
137 20362052 AKT inhibition by PGE(2) was reversed following either siRNA-mediated EP(4) knockdown, PKA inhibition (H89), or phosphatase inhibition (orthovanadate).
138 20362052 Podocytes treated for 20min with H(2)O(2) (10(-4)M), which mimics reactive oxygen species generation by cells challenged by hyperglycemic or enhanced Pgc conditions, significantly increased the levels of active p38 MAPK, AKT, JNK and ERK1/2.
139 20362052 Interestingly, stretch and PGE(2) each significantly reduced H(2)O(2)-mediated AKT phosphorylation and was reversed by pretreatment with orthovanadate while stretch alone reduced GSK-3beta inhibitory phosphorylation at ser-9.
140 20362052 Finally, mechanical stretch alone or in combination with HG, induced ERK1/2 and JNK activation, via the EGF receptor since AG1478, a specific EGF receptor kinase inhibitor, blocked this activation.
141 20362052 These changes in MAPKs and AKT activities might impact cellular integrity required for a functional glomerular filtration barrier thereby contributing to the onset of proteinuria in DN.
142 20031026 This study demonstrates that the expression of the mesenchymal markers CD29 and CD44, the epithelial markers CD51 and ZO-1 and the podocyte markers CD2AP and NPHS2 can be induced in these cells via incubation with epidermal growth factor/platelet-derived growth factor BB and fibroblast growth factor 4/hepatocyte growth factor, respectively.
143 19116644 Green fluorescent protein (GFP)-tagged palladin was found in dynamic ring-like F-actin structures and ruffles in cultured podocytes after stimulation with epidermal growth factor.
144 17660022 Angiogenesis inhibitors that target the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor (EGFR) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) constitute an important addition to the therapeutic armamentarium for the treatment of patients with metastatic disease.
145 16938652 At 4 days, the cells altered their phenotype, as shown by a change in shape, an increase in intracellular staining for alpha-smooth muscle actin (alpha-SMA), a decrease in membrane staining for cytokeratin, and an increase in matrix deposition.

148 16938652 Changing the medium after 4 days by excluding TGF-beta(1) and adding fetal bovine serum (FBS) [as a source of epidermal growth factor (EGF) and other growth factors] caused the cells to revert to their original epithelial phenotype.

151 16938652 Staining the cells for expression of EGF receptor before and after exposure to TGF-beta(1) caused this receptor, originally present on the plasma membrane, to become partly intracellular after 4 days of TGF-beta(1) exposure and completely intracellular after 8 days of TGF-beta(1) exposure.
152 16938652 Staining the cells for expression of EGF receptor before and after exposure to TGF-beta(1) caused this receptor, originally present on the plasma membrane, to become partly intracellular after 4 days of TGF-beta(1) exposure and completely intracellular after 8 days of TGF-beta(1) exposure.

154 16938652 It seems that TGF-beta(1) exposure progressively downregulates the EGF receptor on the membrane, rendering the cell refractory to EGF signals critical for maintaining the epithelial phenotype.

157 15213232 A novel role for the adaptor molecule CD2-associated protein in transforming growth factor-beta-induced apoptosis.
158 15213232 CD2-associated protein (CD2AP) is an adaptor molecule involved in T cell receptor signaling and podocyte homeostasis.
159 15213232 Here we report that increased transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1) expression and apoptosis were present in podocytes at the onset of albuminuria and were followed by depletion of podocytes associated with progressive focal-segmental glomerulosclerosis in CD2AP-/- mice.
160 15213232 Conditionally immortalized podocytes derived from CD2AP-/- mice were more susceptible to TGF-beta-induced apoptosis compared with CD2AP+/+ podocytes.
161 15213232 Reconstitution of CD2AP rescued CD2AP-/- podocytes from TGF-beta-induced apoptosis.
162 15213232 CD2AP was required for early activation of anti-apoptotic phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/AKT and extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 by TGF-beta.
163 15213232 In contrast, activation of pro-apoptotic p38 MAPK by TGF-beta was accelerated and enhanced in the absence of CD2AP.
164 15213232 CD2AP was not required for PI3K/AKT activation by insulin and epidermal growth factor, indicating that CD2AP is a selective mediator of anti-apoptotic TGF-beta signaling.
165 15213232 In summary, we identified CD2AP as a novel mediator for selective activation of survival pathways and repression of apoptosis signaling by TGF-beta in podocytes.
166 15213232 Together, our in vitro and in vivo findings suggest that TGF-beta-induced podocyte apoptosis is an early pathomechanism in mice developing focal-segmental glomerulosclerosis associated with functional impairment of CD2AP.
