Methylglyoxal‐induced Fibronectin gene expression through Ras‐mediated NADPH oxidase activation in renal mesangial cells

Abstract: Induction of superxoide by Ras via p38 pathway activates fibrotic gene transcription of mesangial cells. Reduction of oxidative stress by scavenging superoxide may offer an alternative strategy for controlling MGO-induced renal fibrosis.

“…syndecans). Several factors in the diabetic milieu including a highly reactive dicarbonyl compound methylglyoxal [58], superoxide [59], nitric oxide [60], activated Ras (GTP-binding proteins of small-molecular-weight) [59], and increased aldose reductase activity [61,62] have been reported to increase fibronectin expression in renal mesangial and proximal tubular cells. Renal fibronectin accumulation has been identified in several animal models of diabetic nephropathy, and has been found amenable to correction by pharmacological agents counteracting expansion of the mesangial extracellular matrix [9,62].…”

“…Furthermore, methylglyoxal can activate Nox in certain cells to increase superoxide, leading to induction of specific matrix molecules including fibronectin (74,120). Methylglyoxal accumulates after radiation-induced redox stress, and glutathione is required for its metabolism to lactate via Slactoylglutathione and glyoxalase I. Ionizing radiation induces glyoxalases I and II (230).…”
