Abstract

Mesangial cell has several key roles in thee control of glomerular function: it partocipates in the regulation of glomerular filtration rate, macromolecular clearance, and as both a source and target of numerous hormones and autocrines. Many of these insights into mesangial cell function have been obtained by studying mesangial cells in culture. However, no suitble cell lines have established yet. We here reported the immortalization of rat kidney glomeruar mesangial cell by transfection of E6 and E7 genes of human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV-16) via electroporation and lipofection. The reslts showed that only electroporation could transfect the genes to mesangial cells and the transfected cells maintained the viability for longer than 6 months. Fluorescence microscopic observation showed that cellular contractility and phagocytosis, which are the two main phenotypes of mesangial cells with rat glomerular epithelial cells showed that the growth of mesangial dells was suppressed by epithelial cell, but the growth of epithelisl cells was enhanced by mesangial cells. Moreover, Such results may imply that the glomerular cell-cell interaction plays an important role in the regulation of cell proliferation and differentiation.
