Biochem/physiol Actions

PDGFRα (platelet-derived growth factor receptor α) is a member of the PDGFR family of membrane receptors with intrinsic tyrosine kinase activity. Aberrant expression of PDGFRα has been linked to developmental abnormalities in vertebrate models and has been implicated in multiple disease states in humans. There is widespread expression of PDGFRα in renal cell types involved in fibrotic and sclerosing processes. PDGF and its receptor PDGFRα are inducers of fibrosis in the repair phase of inflammatory bowel disease and they may also be involved in the active inflammatory phase.

Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) plays an important role in renal disease. We have recently demonstrated that in healthy mature human kidney, PDGF alpha-receptor expression is largely restricted to interstitial cells. The study presented here assesses the expression of PDGF alpha-receptor
