BMP-7 modulates hyaluronan-mediated proximal tubular cell-monocyte interaction.
Increased synthesis of hyaluronan (HA) in the renal corticointerstitium has been documented in renal injury, although the functional significance of this is unclear. The aim of the work presented in the current study was to examine the role of HA in monocyte binding by proximal tubular cells (PTC). Using the PTC line HK-2, the authors show that unstimulated cells formed pericellular HA cable-li...
متن کاملBone morphogenic protein-7 inhibits monocyte-stimulated TGF-beta1 generation in renal proximal tubular epithelial cells.
It has been demonstrated that bone morphogenic protein-7 (BMP-7) stimulates formation of hyaluronan (HA)-based cables on the cell surface of renal proximal tubular cells and that these cables mediate monocyte binding. Furthermore, interaction of monocytes with proximal tubule cell (PTC) surface intracellular adhesion molecule (ICAM) stimulates the synthesis of TGF-beta1. This study examined the...
متن کاملOverexpression of hyaluronan synthase 2 alters hyaluronan distribution and function in proximal tubular epithelial cells.
The functional consequences of increased renal cortical hyaluronan that is associated with both acute injury and progressive scarring are unclear. The aim of this study was to characterize hyaluronan synthase-2 (HAS2)-driven HA synthesis and determine its effect on renal proximal tubular epithelial cell (PTC) function, because this is known to be the inducible form of HA synthase in this cell t...
متن کاملCD44 modulates Smad1 activation in the BMP-7 signaling pathway
Bone morphogenetic protein 7 (BMP-7) regulates cellular metabolism in embryonic and adult tissues. Signal transduction occurs through the activation of intracellular Smad proteins. In this paper, using a yeast two-hybrid screen, Smad1 was found to interact with the cytoplasmic domain of CD44, a receptor for the extracellular matrix macromolecule hyaluronan. Coimmunoprecipitation experiments con...
متن کاملCharacterization of hyaluronan cable structure and function in renal proximal tubular epithelial cells.
Alteration in the glycosaminoglycan hyaluronan (HA) has been demonstrated in numerous renal diseases. We have demonstrated that renal proximal tubular epithelial cells (PTCs) surround themselves in vitro with HA in an organized pericellular matrix or 'coat', which is associated with cell migration, and also form pericellular HA cable-like structures which modulate PTC-mononuclear leukocytes int...
