PG - 1247-51 AB - In nephrotic glomerulopathies, there is ultrafiltration of high molecular weight forms of insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I), hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), and transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta), which are bioactive in tubular fluid and act through apical tubular receptors. Experimental evidence indicates that ultrafiltered IGF-I, HGF, and TGF-beta may contribute to increased tubular phosphate and sodium absorption, synthesis of extracellular matrix proteins, and secretion of chemokines such as monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1). Through these mechanisms, glomerular proteinuria may contribute to tubulointerstitial pathobiology in nephrotic syndrome.
