We studied the effect of a high glucose (HG) environment on the vascular factors that are secreted by mesangial cells, and regulate endothelial growth and mesangial matrix deposition. To this effect, we measured the vascular factors in the glomeruli of streptozotocin-induced diabetic kidneys and in mesangial cells exposed to a HG concentration. We then transferred the media of mesangial cells previously exposed to high glucose to cultured endothelial cells to study the effects on endothelial growth, matrix formation, and in vitro capillary proliferation. In 1-week diabetic kidneys, glomerular vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and angiopoietin-1 were inhibited by 38 and 57%, respectively, but angiopoietin-2 was increased by 318%. We found similar results in mesangial cells exposed to HG. There was a decrease of VEGF (50% by enzyme immunoassay, 27% by mRNA), decrease of angiopoietin-1 (65% by mRNA), and a much greater increase of angiopoietin-2 (280% by immunoassay, 523% by mRNA). Compared to controls, the media of mesangial cells previously exposed to HG impaired endothelial cell growth by 61%, increased extracellular matrix by 100%, and decreased capillary formation by 90%. We conclude that high ambient glucose alters the secretion of vascular factors elaborated by mesangial cells, resulting in an expansion of the endothelial cell matrix and disruption of capillary structure.
