Glomerular Mesangial Cell pH Homeostasis Mediates Mineralocorticoid Receptor-Induced Cell Proliferation
Mineralocorticoids (e.g., aldosterone) support chronic inflammatory tissue damage, including glomerular mesangial injury leading to glomerulosclerosis. Furthermore, aldosterone leads to activation of the extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERK1/2) in rat glomerular mesangial cells (GMC). Because...
