Recent molecular cloning studies have suggested the presence of at least two β4Gal transferase genes (β4GalT-V and β4GalT-VI)
that may encode lactosylceramide synthase but whether they are functional in vivo and whether they mediate growth factor induced phenotypic change such as cell proliferation is not known.
Our previous studies lead to the suggestion that various risk factors in atherosclerosis such as oxidized LDL, shear stress,
nicotine, tumor necrosis factor-α converge upon LacCer synthase to induce critical phenotypic changes such as cell proliferation
and cell adhesion [1]. However, whether platelet-derived growth factor also recruits LacCer synthase in mediating cell proliferation
is not known. Here we have employed a Chinese hamster ovary mutant cell line Pro−5Lec20 to determine whether this enzyme physiologically functions to mediate cell proliferation.
We show that PDGF stimulates the activity of UDP galactose:glucosylceramide, β1,4galactosyltransferase. The activity of LacCer
synthase increased about 2.5 fold within 2.5–5 min of incubation with PDGF in both wild type and Pro−5Lec20 cells. Concomitantly, there was an increase in the generation of superoxide radicals, p44MAPK phosphorylation and cell proliferation in CHO cells. D-phenyl-2-decanoylamino-3-morpholino-1-propanol (D-PDMP), a potent
inhibitor of GlcCer synthase/LacCer synthase impaired PDGF mediated induction of LacCer synthase activity, superoxide generation,
p44 MAPK activation and cell proliferation in Pro−5Lec20 cells. PDGF-induced superoxide generation was also mitigated by the use of diphenylene iodonium; an inhibitor of NADPH
oxidase activity that is required for superoxide generation. This inhibition was bypassed by the addition of lactosylceramide.
Thus, β4GalT-V gene produces a bona fide LacCer synthase that can function in vivo to generate LacCer. Moreover, this enzyme alone can mediate PDGF induced activation of a signal transduction cascade involving
superoxide generation, p44MAPK activation, phosphorylation of Akt and cell proliferation. 相似文献

Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) has been implicated in smooth muscle cell (SMC) proliferation, a key event in the development of myointimal hyperplasia in vascular grafts. Recent evidence suggests that the PDGF receptor (PDGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor, imatinib, can prevent arterial proliferative diseases. Because hyperplasia is far more common at the venous anastomosis than the arterial anastomosis in vascular grafts, we investigated whether imatinib also inhibited venous SMC (VSMC) proliferation, and examined possible differences in its mechanism of action between VSMC and arterial SMC (ASMC). Human ASMC and VSMC were stimulated with PDGF-AB, in the presence or absence of imatinib (0.1-10 microM). Proliferation was assayed using the 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU) incorporation assay, while PDGFR, Akt and ERK1/2-mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathways were investigated by immunoblotting. The proliferative response to PDGF at 50 and 100 ng/ml was 32 and 43% greater, respectively, in VSMC than in ASMC. Similarly, PDGF-stimulated proliferation was more sensitive to inhibition by imatinib in VSMC than ASMC (IC(50) = 0.05 microM vs. 0.4 microM; P < 0.01). Imatinib also more effectively inhibited PDGF-induced phosphorylation of PDGFRbeta and Akt in VSMC, compared to ASMC. These data highlight inherent pharmacodynamic differences between VSMC and ASMC in receptor and cell signaling functions and suggest that imatinib therapy may be useful for the prevention of venous stenosis in vascular grafts. 相似文献

Muscarinic receptors and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) receptors synergistically induce proliferation of airway smooth muscle (ASM), but the pathways that regulate these effects are not yet completely identified. We hypothesized that glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3), a kinase that represses several promitogenic signaling pathways in its unphosphorylated form, is cooperatively inhibited by PDGF and muscarinic receptors in immortalized human ASM cell lines. PDGF or methacholine alone induced rapid GSK-3 phosphorylation. This phosphorylation was sustained only for PDGF; however, methacholine potentiated PDGF-induced sustained GSK-3 phosphorylation. Synergistic effects of methacholine also were observed on PDGF-induced retinoblastoma protein (Rb) phosphorylation and cell proliferation. Suppression of GSK-3 inhibitory function using SB 216763 also augmented PDGF-induced Rb phosphorylation and cell cycle progression; this synergy was similar in magnitude to that seen for methacholine with PDGF. GSK-3 phosphorylation induced by methacholine required PKC, since it was abolished by GF 109203X and G? 6976; however, inhibition of PKC had no effect on cell responses to PDGF. PKC inhibition also specifically abolished the synergistic effect of methacholine on PDGF-induced GSK-3 phosphorylation and cell proliferation. Collectively, these results show that GSK-3 plays a key repressive role in ASM cell proliferation. Moreover, muscarinic receptors mediate PKC-dependent GSK-3 inhibition, and this appears to be a primary mechanism underpinning augmentation of PDGF-induced cell growth. 相似文献

Hyaluronan and versican-rich pericellular matrices form around arterial smooth muscle cells (ASMC) preferentially during the detachment phase of proliferation and migration. PDGF is a potent mitogen and chemotactic agent for ASMC and also stimulates the production of extracellular matrix molecules which may regulate the proliferative and migratory capacity of the cells. We have examined the effect of PDGF on the formation of hyaluronan-dependent pericellular matrices, and on the synthesis and interaction of several major pericellular coat constituents. As demonstrated using a particle exclusion assay, PDGF stimulated the formation of pericellular matrices and was seen both in an increased proportion of cells with a coat and a greater coat size. This increase was accompanied by a transient increase in hyaluronan synthase 2 (HAS2) expression and an increase in hyaluronan synthesis and polymer length. PDGF also increased the synthesis of versican and link protein as measured at the mRNA and protein levels. The amount of native versican-hyaluronan aggregates and link-stabilized aggregate was also increased following PDGF treatment. Time lapse imaging showed that pericellular matrix formation occurred around trailing cell processes prior to their detachment. These data suggest that PDGF modulates the synthesis and organization of ASMC pericellular coat-forming molecules such as versican, hyaluronan, and link protein, which leads to extracellular matrix expansion and alterations in ASMC phenotype. 相似文献

Lactosylceramide (LacCer) is a member of the glycosphingolipid family which has been recently recognized as a signaling intermediate
in the regulation of cell proliferation and cell adhesion. In this paper, we present our studies pointing to a potential role
of LacCer in inducing apoptosis. In our studies we employed a human osteosarcoma cell line MG-63 (wild type, WT) and a neutral
sphingomyelinase (N-SMase) deficient cell line CC derived from MG-63 (mutant) cells. We observed that WT cells were highly
sensitive to tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), ceramide and LacCer-induced apoptosis. In contrast, the mutant cells were insensitive
to TNF-α-induced apoptosis as they did not generate ceramide and LacCer. However, the exogenous supply of ceramide and/or
LacCer rendered the mutant cells apoptotic. Interestingly, preincubation of cells with D-threo-1-phenyl-2-decanoylamino-3-morpholino-1-propanol
(D-PDMP), an inhibitor of glucosylceramide synthase and lactosylceramide synthase, abrogated ceramide-induced apoptosis but
not LacCer-induced apoptosis in both WT cells and the mutant cells. Moreover, TNF-α and LacCer-induced apoptosis required
the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in WT cells. However, since mutant cells did not produce significant amounts
of LacCer and ROS in response to TNF-α treatment they are insensitive to TNF-α-induced apoptosis. In summary, our studies
suggest that TNF-α-induced N-SMase activation and production of ceramide is required to activate the apoptosis pathway in
human osteosarcoma cells. But it is not sufficient to induce apoptosis. Rather, the conversion of ceramide to LacCer and ROS
generation are critical for apoptosis. 相似文献

Abnormal proliferation and migration of airway smooth muscle cells (ASMCs) have been found to be important for the airway remodeling during the pathogenesis of asthma. Salidroside a bioactive glucoside that exerts antitumor activity via inhibiting the cell proliferation and migration of cancer cells. The aim of the current study was to evaluate the effects of salidroside on the proliferation and migration of ASMCs. Our results showed that salidroside inhibited the proliferation and migration of ASMCs in response to platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) stimulation. Salidroside markedly attenuated the PDGF-induced production of matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP-2) and MMP-9 in ASMCs. The levels of contractile phenotype markers including smooth muscle α-actin and calponin were reduced in response to PDGF stimulation, which was attenuated by salidroside pretreatment. Salidroside diminished the increase in the expression levels of type I collagen and fibronectin in PDGF-stimulated ASMCs. Furthermore, salidroside blocked the PDGF-induced activation of the nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) pathway in ASMCs. The results suggested that salidroside functionally regulated the proliferation, migration, phenotype plasticity, and extracellular matrix deposition in PDGF-induced ASMCs and the NF-κB pathway might be implicated in the effects of salidroside on ASMCs induced by PDGF. 相似文献

Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) has a critical role in proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) as a chemoattractant and mitogen for retinal pigment epithelial cells and retinal glial cells. Here, we investigated the potential effects of PDGF on the proliferation of Müller cells and the intracellular signaling pathway mediating these changes. PDGF induced Müller cell proliferation and increased phosphorylation of the PDGF receptor (PDGFR), as shown by an MTT assay and immunoprecipitation analyses. Both effects were blocked by JNJ, a PDGFR-selective tyrosine kinase inhibitor. PDGF also stimulated phosphorylation of c-JNK and Akt. PDGF-induced Müller cell proliferation was significantly reduced by pre-treatment with SP600125 and LY294002, inhibitors of c-JNK and Akt phosphorylation, respectively. Our findings collectively indicate that PDGF-stimulated Müller cell proliferation occurs via activation of the c-JNK and PI3K/Akt signaling pathways. These data provide useful information in establishing the role of Müller cells in the development of proliferative vitreoretinopathy. 相似文献

The putative effects of changes in mean strain and cyclic strain amplitude on vascular smooth muscle cell (vSMC) growth (proliferation and apoptosis) were examined. Subsequently, a quantitative measure of vSMC growth was obtained to determine the prolonged effect of changes in mechanical burden following bare-metal stent (BMS) and sirolimus drug-eluting stent (DES) deployment in vitro. Bovine aortic vSMCs were exposed to prolonged cyclic strain using a FlexercellTM Tension system and a novel SylgardTM phantom vessel following stent implantation before the level of vSMC proliferation and apoptosis was assessed by FACS analysis, cell counting, and immunocytochemistry. Physiological cyclic strain (5%) decreased vSMC proliferation and increased apoptosis in a temporal manner. There was no significant difference in cell growth following exposure to varying mean strains with similar amplitude. In contrast, exposure to varying strain amplitudes with similar mean strains resulted in significant differences in cell proliferation and apoptosis. In parallel studies, the level of vSMC proliferation and cell survival was significantly increased within low amplitude, high mean strain regions of a phantom vessel following BMS implantation when compared to regions of higher strain amplitude upstream and downstream of the stent, respectively. Moreover, the level of vSMC growth within the stented region was significantly attenuated following implantation of a sirolimus-coated DES independent of significant changes in cell survival. Cyclic strain amplitude is an important regulator of vSMC growth capacity within a stent and is a target for inhibition using a sirolimus-coated DES. 相似文献

Cardiovascular disease is associated with a multitude of pathophysiologic conditions, including vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) proliferation in response to vessel injury. Diethylstilbestrol (DES) was previously prescribed for at-risk pregnancies to prevent abortion, miscarriage, and premature labor. Our aim in this study was to elucidate the effects and molecular mechanism of DES on proliferation and cell cycle progression of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-BB-stimulated rat aortic VSMCs. Treating the cells with DES (1-7 μM) dramatically inhibited cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner without any cytotoxic effects. In addition, DES blocked cell cycle progression from PDGF-BB-stimulated cells, which we found was related to down-regulation of the cell cycle regulatory factors, cyclin D1, and cyclin E. Our data demonstrate that DES inhibits rat aortic VSMC proliferation and cell cycle progression through regulation of cell cycle-related proteins. Therefore, our observations may explain, in part, the mechanistic basis underlying the therapeutic effects of DES in cardiovascular disease. 相似文献

Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), a potent chemoattractant, induces cell migration via the MAPK and PI3K/Akt pathways. However, the downstream mediators are still elusive. In particular, the role of extracellular mediators is largely unknown. In this study, we identified the matricellular protein Cyr61, which is de novo synthesized in response to PDGF stimulation, as the key downstream mediator of the ERK and JNK pathways, independent of the p38 MAPK and AKT pathways, and, thereby, it mediates PDGF-induced smooth muscle cell migration but not proliferation. Our results revealed that, when Cyr61 was newly synthesized by PDGF, it was promptly translocated to the extracellular matrix and physically interacted with the plasma membrane integrins α6β1 and αvβ3. We further demonstrate that Cyr61 and integrins are integral components of the PDGF signaling pathway via an “outside-in” signaling route to activate intracellular focal adhesion kinase (FAK), leading to cell migration. Therefore, this study provides the first evidence that the PDGF-induced endogenous extracellular matrix component Cyr61 is a key mediator in modulating cell migration by connecting intracellular PDGF-ERK and JNK signals with integrin/FAK signaling. Therefore, extracellular Cyr61 convergence with growth factor signaling and integrin/FAK signaling is a new concept of growth factor-induced cell migration. The discovered signaling pathway may represent an important therapeutic target in growth factor-mediated cell migration/invasion-related vascular diseases and tumorigenesis. 相似文献

Previous studies have shown that an increased intake of dietary flavonoids is associated with a decreased risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). PDGF is a major mitogen for vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) and participates in the pathogenesis of many CVDs. The study investigated whether the flavone chrysin affected PDGF functions in VSMCs and neointma formation in rat artery. We found that chrysin concentration-dependently inhibited PDGF-induced proliferation and chemotaxis and reduced PDGF signaling in VSMCs. Chrysin attenuated H(2)O(2) signaling and PDGF-induced reactive oxygen species production and NADPH oxidase activation but did not interfere with PDGF binding to VSMCs. The further analyses revealed that chrysin relieved PDGF-induced inhibition on activity of protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) and reduced PDGF-induced oxidation of PTP cysteinyl active site. Moreover, it inhibited PDGF receptor autophosphorylation induced by low-dose vanadate (an inhibitor for PTP). The effect of chrysin, but not of the flavonoid (-)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate and antioxidant N-acetylcysteine, on PDGF signaling and PTP activity was reversed by depletion of intracellular glutathione (GSH), suggesting an involvement of chrysin on GSH/glutaredoxin system for PTP reactivation. Finally, to demonstrate the effectiveness of chrysin in vivo, we showed that oral administration of chrysin before and after angioplasty could reduce neointima formation in balloon-injured carotid artery in rats. In conclusion, we provide here evidence that chrysin can regulate intracellular PTP activity during PDGF signaling, inhibits PDGF-induced VSMC proliferation and chemotaxis, and reduces arterial intima hyperplasia in vivo. 相似文献

Background
Airway wall remodelling is an important pathology of asthma. Growth factor induced airway smooth muscle cell (ASMC) proliferation is thought to be the major cause of airway wall thickening in asthma. Earlier we reported that Dimethylfumarate (DMF) inhibits platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-BB induced mitogen and stress activated kinase (MSK)-1 and CREB activity as well as IL-6 secretion by ASMC. In addition, DMF altered intracellular glutathione levels and thereby reduced proliferation of other cell types.Methods
We investigated the effect of DMF on PDGF-BB induced ASMC proliferation, on mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) activation; and on heme oxygenase (HO)-1 expression. ASMC were pre-incubated for 1 hour with DMF and/or glutathione ethylester (GSH-OEt), SB203580, hemin, cobalt-protoporphyrin (CoPP), or siRNA specific to HO-1 before stimulation with PDGF-BB (10 ng/ml).Results
PDGF-BB induced ASMC proliferation was inhibited in a dose-dependant manner by DMF. PDGF-BB induced the phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and p38 MAPK, but not of JNK. DMF enhanced the PDGF-BB induced phosphorylation of p38 MAPK and there by up-regulated the expression of HO-1. HO-1 induction inhibited the proliferative effect of PDGF-BB. HO-1 expression was reversed by GSH-OEt, or p38 MAPK inhibition, or HO-1 siRNA, which all reversed the anti-proliferative effect of DMF.Conclusion
Our data indicate that DMF inhibits ASMC proliferation by reducing the intracellular GSH level with subsequent activation of p38 MAPK and induction of HO-1. Thus, DMF might reduce ASMC and airway remodelling processes in asthma. 相似文献15.
CyclinD1 over-expression is the key pathogenetic event underlying airway smooth muscle (ASM) proliferation. Human antigen
R (HuR) is a ubiquitously expressed RNA-binding protein, and is known to regulate the expression of multiple cell cycle regulators.
The aim of the study is to investigate whether HuR might also be involved in ASM proliferation. In cultured ASM cells, PDGF
treatment induced a significant elevation of HuR expression at both mRNA and protein levels. Immunofluorescence analysis demonstrated
PDGF might promote HuR translocation from nucleus to cytoplasma as well. RNA-interference of HuR effectively decreased PDGF-induced
cyclinD1 over-expression in ASM cells. Furthermore, AMPK activation by AICAR could effectively decrease PDGF-induced HuR cytoplasmatic
translocation, cyclinD1 expression and ASM cells proliferation. In conclusion, altered expression and activity of HuR might
participate in PDGF-induced ASM cells cyclinD1 expression and proliferation. The effectiveness of AMPK activation indicated
a novel intervention method for airway remodeling. 相似文献

NHERF2 increases platelet-derived growth factor-induced proliferation through PI-3-kinase/Akt-, ERK-, and Src family kinase-dependent pathway 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) has multiple functions including inhibition of apoptosis and promotion of cell proliferation. In this study, we show that Na(+)/H(+) exchanger regulatory factor 2 (NHERF2) binds to the carboxyl-terminal PDZ domain-binding motif of the PDGF receptor through a PDZ domain-mediated interaction, and evaluate the consequence on PDGF-induced proliferation. Stable transfection with NHERF2 increased the PDGF-induced phosphorylation of ERK and Akt in Rat1 embryonic fibroblasts. The phosphorylation of Akt was blocked by pretreatment with LY294002, a PI-3-kinase inhibitor, in both Rat1/NHERF2 and Rat1/vector cells. In Rat1/vector cells, PDGF-induced phosphorylation of ERK was completely inhibited by pretreatment with PD98059, a MEK inhibitor. In contrast, the NHERF2-dependent increase of ERK phosphorylation was not affected by pretreatment with PD98059 in Rat1/NHERF2 cells. Thus, the NHERF2-dependent increase of ERK phosphorylation occurs in a MEK-independent fashion. Pretreatment with PP2, a specific inhibitor of Src family tyrosine kinase, completely blocked the NHERF2-dependent increase of the phosphorylation of ERK and Akt, suggesting that NHERF2 up-regulates Erk phosphorylation through a Src family kinase-dependent pathway. Consistent with these results, the PDGF-induced thymidine incorporation was increased in Rat1/NHERF2 cells, and the NHERF2-dependent increase of thymidine incorporation was prevented by treatment with LY294002 and PP2 but not with PD98059. These results suggest that NHERF2 stimulates PDGF-induced proliferation by increasing PI-3-kinase/Akt, MEKindependent ERK, and Src family kinase-mediated signaling pathways. 相似文献

In adult tissue, vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) exist in a differentiated phenotype, which is defined by the expression of contractile proteins and lack of proliferation. After vascular injury, VSMC adopt a synthetic phenotype associated with proliferation, migration and matrix secretion. The transition between phenotypes is a consequence of the extracellular environment, and in particular, is regulated by agonists such as the pro-differentiating cytokine transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) and the pro-proliferative cytokine platelet derived growth factor (PDGF). In this study, we investigated the interplay between TGFβ and PDGF with respect to their ability to regulate VSMC proliferation. Stimulation of human aortic VSMC with TGFβ completely blocked proliferation induced by all isoforms of PDGF, as measured by DNA synthesis and total cell number. Mechanistically, PDGF-induced Cyclin D1 mRNA and protein expression was inhibited by TGFβ. TGFβ had no effect on PDGF activation of its receptor and ERK1/2, but inhibited Akt activation. However, constitutively active Akt did not reverse the inhibitory effect of TGFβ on Cyclin D1 expression even though inhibition of the proteasome blocked the effect of TGFβ. siRNA against Smad4 completely reversed the inhibitory effect of TGFβ on PDGF-induced Cyclin D1 expression and restored proliferation in response to PDGF. Moreover, siRNA against KLF5 prevented Cyclin D1 upregulation by PDGF and overexpression of KLF5 partially reversed TGFβ-induced inhibition of Cyclin D1 expression. Taken together, our results demonstrate that KLF5 is required for PDGF-induced Cyclin D1 expression, which is inhibited by TGFβ via a Smad dependent mechanism, resulting in arrest of VSMCs in the G1 phase of the cell cycle. 相似文献

Differential effects of three inhibitors of glycosphingolipid biosynthesis on neuronal differentiation of embryonal carcinoma stem cells 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Gangliosides have been implicated in having important roles in neural development. It has been shown that disruption of ganglioside biosynthesis inhibits neurite outgrowth. However, many contradictory results have been reported. The inconsistency of these reports may result from the differential use of neuronal cell lines and inhibitors for ganglioside biosynthesis. In order to clarify the inconsistency in these studies, we utilized an in vitro neuronal differentiation model using an embryonic caricinoma (EC) stem cell line to elucidate the relationship between ganglioside expression and neural development. These cells were exposed to three different inhibitors of glucosylceramide synthase, the first enzyme committed for the biosynthesis of most of the brain gangliosides. All three inhibitors, d-threo-1-phenyl-2-decanoylamino-3-morphlino-1-propanol (D-PDMP), d-threo-1-phenyl-2-palmitoylamino-3-pyrrolidino-1-propanol (D-PPPP), and N-butydeoxynojirimycin (NB-DNJ) can inhibit greater than 90% of ganglioside biosynthesis at certain concentrations, respectively. D-PDMP significantly slowed down cellular proliferation in undifferentiated P19 EC cells, inhibited neurite outgrowth, and eventually caused cell death in differentiated cells. However, no retardation in cell growth, neuronal differentiation, and neurite outgrowth was observed in cultures treated with D-PPPP or NB-DNJ despite the depletion of gangliosides. These results indicate that the effect of D-PDMP on cellular proliferation, neurite outgrowth, and survival of differentiated cells is independent of the inhibition of ganglioside biosynthesis. 相似文献

Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) induces the proliferation and migration of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), leading to the development of various vascular disorders such as restenosis and atherosclerosis. Therefore, inhibitors of PDGF-induced cellular events would be candidate agents for treating these diseases. During the search for such inhibitors from marine sources, we isolated petrosiols A–D (1–4) and related compounds from the marine sponge Petrosia strongylata. These metabolites, which we previously reported as neurotrophic substances, showed an inhibitory effect on PDGF-induced DNA synthesis at IC50 values of 0.69–2.2 μM. Petrosiol A (1) inhibited PDGF-induced cell proliferation without remarkable cytotoxicity and arrested cell cycle progression from the G0/G1 to S phase by inducing the downregulation of the expression of G1 checkpoint proteins cyclin D1, cyclin E, cyclin-dependent kinases (CDK)2, and CDK4 and the upregulation of the expression of p21 and p27. In addition, petrosiol A (1) inhibited the phosphorylation of PDGF receptor-β and its downstream proteins such as phospholipase C (PLC)-γ1, Akt, and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK)1/2. These results suggest that 1 inhibited PDGF-induced VSMC proliferation by interrupting the phosphorylation of PDGF receptor-β followed by downstream signal transduction. Furthermore, petrosiol A (1) suppressed PDGF-induced actin filament dissociation and cell migration, suggesting that 1 and its derivatives may be used for the prevention and treatment of vascular diseases. 相似文献

The platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) family consists of four isoforms which are secreted as homodimers (PDGF-AA, PDGF-BB, PDGF-CC and PDGF-DD) or heterodimers (PDGF-AB), and two receptor chains (PDGFR-α and -β). All members of the PDGF system are constitutively or inducibly expressed in renal cells and are involved in the regulation of cell proliferation and migration, the accumulation of extracellular matrix proteins and the secretion of pro- and anti-inflammatory mediators. Particular roles have been identified in mediating mesangioproliferative changes, renal interstitial fibrosis and glomerular angiogenesis. Different endogenous inhibitors of PDGF-induced biological responses exist which affect the activation/deactivation of PDGF isoforms, the activity of the PDGFRs, or which block downstream signaling pathways of the autophosphorylated PDGFRs. The novel endogenous inhibitor nephroblastoma overexpressed gene (NOV, CCN3) reduces PDGF-induced cell proliferation and is downregulated by PDGF isoforms itself. Among all identified inhibitors only few "true" PDGF antagonists have been identified. A better understanding of these inhibitors may aid in the design of novel therapeutic approaches to PDGF-mediated diseases. 相似文献
