CTGF — RENBP
Text-mined interactions from Literome
Lee et al., J Cell Biochem 2004
:
Thus, the
effects of
AGE ( 150 microg/ml ) and leptin on mitogenesis,
CTGF and collagen expression in NRK-49F cells were determined
Zhou et al., Am J Pathol 2004
(Diabetic Neuropathies...) :
These results suggest that
AGE induced
CTGF expression, predominantly through a TGF-beta 1-independent pathway, plays a critical role in renal ECM accumulation leading to diabetic nephropathy
Lee et al., J Cell Biochem 2005
:
Moreover, losartan ( a type I angiotensin receptor blocker ) and captopril ( an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor ) attenuated
AGE induced
CTGF mRNA/protein expression while attenuating AGE induced mitogenesis and type I collagen production
