Glomerular upregulation of monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1), followed by an influx of monocytes resulting eventually in extracellular matrix deposition is a common sequel of many types of glomerulonephritis. However, it is not entirely clear how early expression of MCP-1 is linked to the later development of glomerulosclerosis. Because transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) is a key regulator of extracellular matrix proteins, we hypothesized that there might be a regulatory loop between early glomerular MCP-1 induction and subsequent TGF-beta expression. To avoid interference with other cytokines that may be released from infiltrating monocytes, isolated rat kidneys were perfused with a polyclonal anti-thymocyte-1 antiserum (ATS) and rat serum (RS) as a complement source to induce glomerular injury. Renal TGF-beta protein and mRNA expressions were strongly stimulated after perfusion with ATS-RS. This effect was attenuated by coperfusion with a neutralizing anti-MCP-1 but was partly mimicked by perfusion with recombinant MCP-1 protein. On the other hand, renal MCP-1 expression and production were stimulated by administration of ATS-RS. Additional perfusion with an anti-TGF-beta antibody further aggravated this increase, whereas application of recombinant TGF-beta protein reduced MCP-1 formation. Our data demonstrate an intrinsic regulatory loop in which increased MCP-1 levels stimulate TGF-beta formation in resident glomerular cells in the absence of infiltrating immune competent cells.
