Activin A: an autocrine regulator of cell growth and differentiation in renal proximal tubular cells.

Kidney international - 1 Aug 2002

Maeshima Akito, Nojima Yoshihisa, Kojima Itaru

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Activin A is involved in tubular regeneration after ischemia/reperfusion injury. The present study was conducted to examine the role of activin A in cell growth, apoptosis and differentiation of tubular cells. METHODS: We performed cell proliferation assays (MTT assay, [3H]-thymidine incorporation) and apoptosis detection assays (nuclear staining, DNA ladder formation, TUNEL staining) using LLC-PK1...
