Abstract excerpt
Mammalian renal inner medullary (IM) cells routinely face and resist hypertonic stress. Such stress causes DNA damage to which IM cells respond with cell cycle arrest. We report that three growth arrest and DNA damage-inducible 45 (GADD45) isoforms (GADD45alpha, GADDD45beta, and GADD45gamma) are induced by acute hypertonicity in murine IM cells. Maximum induction occurs 16-18 h after the onset of hypertonicity....
