Prostaglandin EP2 and EP4 receptors modulate expression of the chemokine CCL2 (MCP-1) in response to LPS-induced renal glomerular inflammation

Gunther Zahner, Melanie Schaper, Ulf Panzer, Malte Kluger, Rolf A. K. Stahl, Friedrich Thaiss, André Schneider
Journal: Biochemical Journal
Biochem J (2009) 422 (3): 563–570.

... the early phase of LPS (lipopolysaccharide)-induced nephritis. This up-regulation also occurs in cultured MCs (mesangial cells) and is more pronounced in MCs lacking the PGE2 (prostaglandin E2) receptor EP2 or in MCs treated with a prostaglandin EP4 receptor antagonist. To examine a possible feedback...

Glucosamine induces cell-cycle arrest and hypertrophy of mesangial cells: implication of gangliosides

...Elodie MASSON; Nicolas WIERNSPERGER; Michel LAGARDE; Samer El BAWAB Alterations in proliferation and hypertrophy of renal mesangial cells are typical features of diabetic nephropathy. The HP (hexosamine pathway) has been proposed as a biochemical hypothesis to explain microvascular alterations due...

Signal transducers and activators of transcription 3 (STAT3) inhibits transcription of the inducible nitric oxide synthase gene by interacting with nuclear factor κB

... repressors have been found. We explored the role of signal transducers and activators of transcription 3 (STAT3) proteins in interleukin (IL)-1β- and lipopolysaccharide (LPS)+interferon (IFN)-γ-mediated iNOS induction in murine mesangial cells. Both stimuli induced rapid phosphorylation of STAT3 and sequence...
