Expression and function of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma in mesangial cells.
P:eroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPARgamma) is a novel nuclear receptor, which enhances insulin-mediated glucose uptake. Ligands to PPARgamma are currently used as therapy for type II diabetes. Using Western blot analysis, RNase protection assay, and immunostaining, we identified the presence of PPARgamma message and protein in cultured primary rat mesangial cells. Electrophor...
متن کاملPeroxisome Proliferator–Activated Receptor- Ligands Inhibit TGF- 1–Induced Fibronectin Expression in Glomerular Mesangial Cells
The thiazolidinedione (TZD) class of antidiabetic drugs, which are ligands for peroxisome proliferator–activated receptor (PPAR), has been shown to possess potent anti-inflammatory and antineoplastic actions. Here, we show in mesangial cells that PPARagonists inhibit fibronectin expression by transforming growth factor (TGF)1. TGF1 enhanced fibronectin mRNA expression, and this enhancement was ...

translation as a comunicative process is always said to be associated with various aspects of meaning loss or gain. subtitling as a mode of translating, due to special discoursal and textual conditions imposed upon it, is believed to be an obvious case of this loss or gain. presenting the spoken sound track of a film in writing and synchronizing the perception of this text by the viewers with...
15 صفحه اولExpression and physical association of Fca receptor and Fc receptor c chain in human mesangial cells
Key words: FcaR; FcR c chain; IgA nephropathy; mesangial cells; physical association Background. Most intensive investigations on the pathogenesis of IgA nephropathy have focused on the process before IgA deposition and the characteristics of IgA/IgA immune complex (IgA IC), but it still Introduction remains uncertain whether mesangial IgA ICs may cause glomerular injuries directly or are only ...
متن کاملExpression of Ghrelin and Its Receptor mRNA in Bovine Oocyte and Cumulus Cells
Energy balance is regulated by ghrelin that is a neuroendocrine modulator. Ghrelin is expressed in reproductive organs. However, the role of ghrelin during in vitro maturation and bovine preimplantational development is limited. The purpose of this study was to determine the expression of ghrelin (GHRL) and its receptor growth hormone secretagogue receptor 1A (GHS-R1A) mRNA expression, and cumu...
