Rat proximal tubule cell line transformed with origin-defective SV40 DNA : autocrine ANG II feedback
The renal proximal tubule (PT) is a major site for a complete tissue renin-angiotensin system (RAS) and produces endogenous angiotensin II (ANG II). The present studies demonstrate autocrine RAS feedback in a line of origin-defective SV40 plasmid transformed immortalized rat PT cells (IRPTC) designa...

Zusammenfassung: | The renal proximal tubule (PT) is a major site for a complete tissue renin-angiotensin system (RAS) and produces endogenous angiotensin II (ANG II). The present studies demonstrate autocrine RAS feedback in a line of origin-defective SV40 plasmid transformed immortalized rat PT cells (IRPTC) designated as line 93-p-2-1, which are highly differentiated and express all RAS components. |
