Research Abstract |
I performed basic examination of possibility to have action through endocytosis of steroid hormone aldosterone etc in renal proximal tubular epithelial cells (PTEC), and I examined the expressional control of endocytotic receptor megalin by renin-angiotensin system (RAS) with a closely relation of aldosterone in PTEC. First, protein level of aldosterone receptor MR and aldosterone response gene SGK1 was confirmed in PTEC. Second, it was clarified the crosstalk with the insulin sinal that recovered the control of angiotensin II on the suppression of Megalin expression in PTEC.
