Hyperglycemia and diabetic kidney disease. The case for transforming growth factor-beta as a key mediator

K Sharma and FN Ziyadeh
Department of Medicine, Thomas Jefferson University, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA.

Renal cells are a rich source of transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta, and they serve as targets for its actions. Our hypothesis that activation of the TGF-beta system in the kidney is implicated in the development of diabetic renal disease stems from the close similarity of actions of TGF-beta and high ambient glucose on renal cell growth and extracellular matrix metabolism. Proximal tubule cells and glomerular mesangial cells cultured in high glucose concentration express increased TGF-beta 1 mRNA and protein levels, and treatment with anti-TGF-beta antibodies results in prevention of the effects of high glucose to induce cellular hypertrophy and stimulate collagen biosynthesis. Several in vivo studies by different groups of investigators have reported overexpression of TGF-beta in the glomeruli in human and experimental diabetes. We have also observed that the development of renal hypertrophy in the insulin-dependent diabetic BB rat and NOD mouse is associated with increased expression of TGF-beta 1 in the kidney and that short-term administration of antibodies capable of neutralizing the activity of TGF-beta in the streptozotocin mouse model of diabetes results in attenuation of whole kidney and glomerular hypertrophy and overexpression of mRNAs encoding matrix components. Together, these findings are consistent with the hypothesis that the diabetic state stimulates TGF-beta expression in the kidney and that in turn this growth factor may mediate, in an autocrine/paracrine manner, some of the principal early manifestations of diabetic renal disease.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
