pubmed:abstractText |
Glomerular capillary hypertension, a common denominator in various forms of progressive glomerular disease, results in mechanical distention of the capillary tuft, and subsequent injury of the overlying podocyte layer. The mechanisms by which elevated intraglomerular pressure is translated into a maladaptive podocyte response remain poorly understood. Angiotensin II plays a central role in the pathogenesis of chronic renal injury, largely through its actions on the subtype 1 receptor. Accordingly, we have tested the hypothesis that mechanical strain up-regulates local angiotensin II in podocytes, thereby resulting in a progressive reduction in podocyte number.
