Proliferation of mesangial cells is a feature of several forms of human and experimental glomerulopathy, including that seen in diabetes. The nonsulfated glycosaminoglycan hyaluronan participates in the regulation of pericellular matrix assembly and is a mitogen in some cell types. We have shown previously that hyaluronan production is increased in the glomerulus in a glucose- and prostaglandin-dependent manner. We have investigated the effect of diabetes and of addition of hyaluronan and prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) on the uptake of [H-3]thymidine by glomerular core preparations enriched in mesangial cells. When compared with nondiabetic controls, it was shown that [H-3]thymidine uptake was significantly increased in glomerular core preparations from streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats (to 169 +/- 5%, P < 0.001). In glomerular cores from both experimental groups, hyaluronan , (10(-12) to 10(-8) mol/l) increased the uptake of [H-3]thymidine. Further, mesangial cells from nondiabetic control glomerular cores, when maintained in culture in early passage, responded with increased [H-3]thymidine uptake to raised glucose (5.6-25 mmol/l) and to added hyaluronan and PGE(2). We propose that prostaglandin and hyaluronan production in response to a raised glucose environment in diabetes can contribute to mesangial hypercellularity.
