Abstract: | Human endothelial cells wereexposed to 5 mM glucose (control), 25 mM (high) glucose, or osmoticcontrol for 72 h. TGF-1 production, cell growth, death, andcell cycle progression, and the effects of TGF-1 and TGF-neutralization on these parameters were studied. High glucose andhyperosmolarity increased endothelial TGF-1 secretion(P < 0.0001) and bioactivity (P < 0.0001). However, high glucose had a greater effect on reducingendothelial cell number (P < 0.001) and increasingcellular protein content (P < 0.001) than the osmoticcontrol. TGF- antibody only reversed the antiproliferative andhypertrophic effects of high glucose. High glucose altered cell cycleprogression and cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor expressionindependently of hyperosmolarity. High glucose increased endothelialcell apoptosis (P < 0.01), whereashyperosmolarity induced endothelial cell necrosis (P < 0.001). TGF- antibody did not reverse the apoptotic effectsobserved with high glucose. Exogenous TGF-1 mimicked the increased Sphase delay but not endoreduplication observed with high glucose. High glucose altered endothelial cell growth, apoptosis, and cellcycle progression. These growth effects occurred principally via aTGF-1 autocrine pathway. In contrast, apoptosis andendoreduplication occurred independently of this cytokine and hyperosmolarity. |
