pubmed:abstractText |
The renin-angiotensin system has been implicated in the pathogenesis of fibrosis in various organs. However, its involvement in peritoneal fibrosis, a crucial complication of peritoneal dialysis, is unclear. Human peritoneal mesothelial cells (HPMC) play a major role in peritoneal fibrosis by producing extracellular matrix (ECM). However, there is scant data regarding the effect of angiotensin II (Ang II) on ECM expression and signal transduction pathways in HPMC.
