Macrophages promote cyst growth in polycystic kidney disease.
Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) exhibits an inflammatory component, but the contribution of inflammation to cyst progression is unknown. Macrophages promote the proliferation of tubular cells following ischemic injury, suggesting that they may have a role in cystogenesis. Furthermore, cultured Pkd1-deficient cells express the macrophage chemoattractants Mcp1 and Cxcl16 and stimulate macrophage ...
متن کاملVasopressin directly regulates cyst growth in polycystic kidney disease.
The polycystic kidney diseases (PKD) are a group of genetic disorders causing renal failure and death from infancy to adulthood. Arginine vasopressin (AVP) V2 receptor antagonists inhibit cystogenesis in animal models of cystic kidney diseases, presumably by downregulating cAMP signaling, cell proliferation, and chloride-driven fluid secretion. For confirmation that the protective effect of the...
متن کاملThe proximal tubule phenotype and its disruption in acute renal failure and polycystic kidney disease.
In light of recent developments in the fields of genetics, molecular, cell and developmental biology, the kidney is receiving increasing attention as a model system for organ development and human diseases. Gene disruption experiments have provided evidence for the essential role of a number of proteins in the earliest phase of nephron development, but very little is known about the identity of...
متن کاملmiR-17~92 miRNA cluster promotes kidney cyst growth in polycystic kidney disease.
Polycystic kidney disease (PKD), the most common genetic cause of chronic kidney failure, is characterized by the presence of numerous, progressively enlarging fluid-filled cysts in the renal parenchyma. The cysts arise from renal tubules and are lined by abnormally functioning and hyperproliferative epithelial cells. Despite recent progress, no Food and Drug Administration-approved therapy is ...
متن کاملEpithelial transport in polycystic kidney disease.
In autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), the genetic defect results in the slow growth of a multitude of epithelial cysts within the renal parenchyma. Cysts originate within the glomeruli and all tubular structures, and their growth is the result of proliferation of incompletely differentiated epithelial cells and the accumulation of fluid within the cysts. The majority of cysts...
