چکیده انگلیسی
Tubulointerstitial fibrosis is characterized by an accumulation of extracellular matrix in the renal interstitium, myofibroblast activation, cell infiltration, and tubular cell apoptosis, leading to chronic renal failure. Activin receptor-like kinase 1 (ALK1) is a transforming growth factor-β1 type I receptor with a pivotal role in endothelial proliferation and migration, but its role in the development of renal fibrosis is unknown. To assess this we used the unilateral ureteral obstruction model of tubulointerstitial fibrosis in ALK1 haploinsufficient (ALK1+/-) and wild-type mice. After 15 days, there was an increase in extracellular matrix protein expression in the obstructed kidneys from both ALK1+/+ and ALK1+/- mice, but obstructed kidneys from ALK1+/- mice showed significantly higher expression of type I collagen than those from wild-type mice. Ureteral obstruction increased kidney myofibroblasts markers (α-smooth muscle actin and S100A4), without differences between mouse genotypes. ALK1 expression was increased after ureteral obstruction, and this increased expression was located in myofibroblasts. Moreover, cultured renal fibroblasts from ALK1+/- mice expressed more collagen type I and fibronectin than fibroblasts derived from wild-type mice. Thus, ALK1 modulates obstruction-induced renal fibrosis by increased extracellular matrix synthesis in myofibroblasts, but without differences in myofibroblast number.
