“…Angiotensin II (All)' and arginine vasopressin (AVP) evoke contraction (1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(6) and stimulate PG synthesis (3,(7)(8)(9) of mesangial cells. Inositol trisphosphate (IP3) production and Ca2+ transients are thought to play an important role in mediating the hormonal effects in mesangial cells (10)(11)(12)(13).…”

“…Experiments were performed on days 14-16 of the first subculture, before the cells reached confluence and at a time when the passaged cells have hormone receptors (19 Contraction experiments. Several hours before these experiments, the culture medium was changed to Ca++-and Mg++-free Hanks' balanced salt solution supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum to facilitate relaxation of the mesangial cells, which remained adherent to the dish (1).…”

“…Several studies demonstrated that mesangial cells possess specific receptors for a number of vasoactive substances that couple to phospholipase C. Receptors for angiotensin I1 [45,72], vasopressin [27,73], PDGF [74] and LTD4 [75] have been identified on mesangial cells. Binding of these agents to their specific receptors is associated with activation of a phospholipase C that specifically cleaves PIP2 to yield DAG and IP3.…”
