“…This study documented that nicotinic acetylcholine receptors, which mediate cell proliferation (49), are expressed on human mesangial cells. A study that used rat mesangial cells documented that exposition of these cells to cigarette smoke concentrate induced an increase of TGF-␤ 1 , a major player in the genesis of renal fibrosis, and 8-epi-PGF2␣, a marker of lipid peroxidation (50). Similar results were found in other experimental models and in humans (51)(52)(53).…”

“…In addition, the PKC-␤-specific inhibitor LY379196 effectively prevented low density lipoprotein-induced PAI-1 production (54) as well as PAI-1 mRNA induction via ␣V␤3 (55). In models of diabetes, studies have shown that TGF-␤ mRNA expression can be modulated by a PKC-␤ specific inhibitor (33,34), and the induction of TGF-␤1 by cigarette smoke could be significantly suppressed by LY379196, suggesting PKC-␤ involvement (56). Our data now supply a possible link to these observations of PKC-␤ dependence via modulation of Smad6s.…”

“…Orth and Hallan [2] have extensively discussed possible mechanisms underlying the development of CKD in smokers, including heavy metal toxicity due to inhalation of tobacco smoke [20][21][22], intrarenal vasoconstriction [23][24][25][26][27], and oxidative stress and the inflammatory process [28][29][30]. Based on the relatively copious body of evidence from previous studies, glomerular hypertension due to intrarenal vasoconstriction seems the most plausible mechanism, which is in turn related to a stimulated renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) caused by the nicotine inhaled with the cigarette smoke.…”
