Abstract:
Regardless of the original cause and etiology, the progression of kidney disease follows a final common pathway associated with tubulointerstitial injury, in which proximal tubular epithelial cells (PTEC) are instrumental. Kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) is an emerging biomarker of kidney tubular damage. It is markedly expressed and released into urine in various animal models and human kidney diseases. This study aimed to explore the underlying mechanism regulating the release of KIM-1 by PTEC. First, expression and release of KIM-1 by primary cultured human PTEC were examined. In quiesc

Abstract:
This is a comprehensive study of human kidney proximal tubular epithelial cells (PTEC) which are known to respond to and mediate the pathological process of a range of kidney diseases. It identifies various molecules expressed by PTEC and how these molecules participate in down-regulating the inflammatory process, thereby highlighting the clinical potential of these molecules to treat various kidney diseases. In the disease state, PTEC gain the ability to regulate the immune cell responses present within the interstitium. This down-regulation is a complex interaction of contact dependent/indep

Abstract:
The heat shock response is a cellular homeostatic mechanism that is activated in response to stressful stimuli (e.g. heat shock, heavy metals, disease states etc.), which causes an increase in unfolded protein, which triggers the expression of heat shock protein (hsp) genes. HSPs are molecular chaperones that assist in protein synthesis, folding and degradation and prevent stress-induced protein aggregation. Since stressor-induced tissue damage is associated with different disease states, indirect evidence suggested that HSP inducers may be therapeutically beneficial for certain diseases. Curc

Abstract:
Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are molecular chaperones that assist in protein synthesis, folding and degradation and prevent stress-induced protein aggregation. The present study examined the pattern of accumulation of HSP30 and HSP70 in cells recovering from heat shock as well as the effect of proteasome inhibition on cytoplasmic/nuclear and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) molecular chaperone accumulation, large multimeric HSP30 complexes, stress granule and aggresome formation in Xenopus laevis A6 kidney epithelial cells. Initial immunoblot analysis revealed the presence of elevated levels of HSP30

l’HPSE è un elemento chiave coinvolto nei complessi processi biologici attivati dal danno da I/R, regolando la attivazione/polarizzazione dei macrofagi e il crosstalk tra queste cellule infiammatorie e l’epitelio tubulare renale.
