Propofol increases bone morphogenetic protein-7 and decreases oxidative stress in sepsis-induced acute kidney injury.
BACKGROUND Pro-inflammatory cytokines and free radicals damage renal tissue leading to acute kidney injury (AKI) during sepsis. Bone morphogenetic protein-7 (BMP-7) represses tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-α-induced inflammatory responses and protects kidney from injury. The sedative agent, propofol, has immunomodulatory and antioxidative properties. The present study investigated whether propofo...
متن کاملTrkC binds to the bone morphogenetic protein type II receptor to suppress bone morphogenetic protein signaling.
TrkC, a member of the tropomyosin-related kinase (Trk) family of neurotrophin receptors, is implicated in the growth and survival of human cancer tissues. TrkC is also a potent oncoprotein expressed in tumors derived from multiple cell lineages, and functions as an active protein tyrosine kinase by neurotrophin-3 (NT-3). We previously reported that TrkC plays an essential role in tumor growth a...
متن کاملBone morphogenetic protein-7 accelerates fracture healing in osteoporotic rats
BACKGROUND Osteoporosis is characterized by low bone mass, bone fragility and increased susceptibility to fracture. Fracture healing in osteoporosis is delayed and rates of implant failure are high with few biological treatment options available. This study aimed to determine whether a single dose of bone morphogenetic protein-7 (BMP-7) in a collagen/carboxy-methyl cellulose (CMC) composite enh...
متن کاملLoss of tubular bone morphogenetic protein-7 in diabetic nephropathy.
Bone morphogenetic protein-7 (BMP7), a member of the transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) superfamily of cytokines, is highly expressed in renal tubules and generally promotes maintenance of epithelial phenotype. It was examined whether, during the evolution of experimental diabetic nephropathy, the renal expression of BMP7 and BMP7 receptors declines, and the hypothesis that loss of BMP7...
متن کاملBone morphogenetic protein-7 (BMP7) in chronic kidney disease.
Bone morphogenetic protein-7 (BMP7) is a member of the BMP-subfamily of perhaps a dozen proteins within the TGFbeta-superfamily of cysteine-knot fold cytokine-growth factors. BMP7 has pivotal functions during renal and eye development. In adult organisms, BMP7 is heavily expressed in kidney, specifically in podocytes, distal tubules and collecting ducts. The activity of BMP7 is reduced by inhib...
