Abnormalities of the cushion tissues lead to atrioventricular septal defects (AVSD) and truncus arteriosus (TA). Bisdiamine exposure in the embryo frequently causes AVSD and TA in the newborn chick, mouse, or rat. We studied the effects of bisdiamine on mesenchymal cells grown in aggregate culture i
Native LDL, in low concentrations, promotes proliferation of cultured human glomerular mesangial cells. LDL stimulated [ 3 H]-thymidine incorporation into DNA of human glomerular mesangial cells. Increased concentrations of LDL led to increased [ 3 H]-thymidine incorporation. When LDL concentrations
## Abstract Transcription factor Spβ1 is an important fibrogenic factor that is involved in the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy. In this study, we examined the effect of Sp1 decoy oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) on the extracellular matrix (ECM) gene expression in cultured rat mesangial cells (RM
