BSC-1 growth inhibitor transforms a mitogenic stimulus into a hypertrophic stimulus for renal proximal tubular cells: relationship to Na+/H+ antiport activity.

Abstract: Renal hypertrophy is characterized by an increase in cell size and protein content with minimal hyperplasia. The mechanisms of control of this pattern of cell growth have not been determined. The present studies examined whether the growth inhibitor elaborated by BSC-1 kidney epithelial cells (GI), which has nearly identical biological properties to transforming growth factor /3 (TGF-fi), could transform a mitogenic stimulus into a hypertrophic stimulus for rabbit renal proximal tubular cells in primary cultur… Show more

“…This ubiquitous growth factor functions in an autocrine or paracrine mode to elicit a multiplicity of cellular effects including inhibition of cellular proliferation and induction of tubuloepithelial cell hypertrophy (8). Our studies demonstrate that ANG II stimulates in MCT cells the production of active TGF-(3 as assessed by a bioassay using mink lung epithelial cells.…”

“…Only a few factors are hypertrophogenic for tubular cells in vitro. Such effectors are transforming growth factor-e (TGF-(3;' 8), high glucose content of the culture medium (9, 10), insulin-like growth factor 1 ( 11), and angiotensin II (ANG II; [12][13][14][15][16]. We (12)(13)(14)(15) and others ( 16) have investigated in a series of experiments the effects on ANG II in cultured proximal tubular cells.…”

“…While stimulatory for fibroblasts and certain other mesenchymal cells, TGF-P is a growth inhibitor for most cell types (5,30). It is the most potent growth inhibitory polypeptide demonstrated so far (4), and it inhibits the proliferation oflymphoid cells (31,32), myeloid cells (30), and epithelial cells, including hepatocytes (10)(11)(12)(13)(14), keratinocytes (5, 6), bronchial epithelial cells (7), renal proximal tubular cells (8), and granulosa cells (9).…”

“…3) and is a potent growth inhibitor for cultured cells of epithelial origin, including hepatocytes (4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13). Subpicomolar concentrations of TGF-,3 inhibit DNA synthesis stimulated by epidermal growth factor and other growth factors in primary cultures of adult rat (10)(11)(12)(13) and human fetal (14) hepatocytes and in lines of normal, but not of transformed, diploid rat liver epithelial cells (12,15).…”

“…Alternatively, cell enlargement could be initiated and maintained by a specific set of events. Identification of autocrine inhibitory substances as regulators of proximal tubular cell growth in vitro (2) suggests that progression through the cell cycle could be blocked by such inhibitors. If the cell cycle is interrupted in hypertrophy, events preceding the blockade would be similar to those in dividing cells.…”
