Hepatocyte growth factor may function as a renotropic factor for regeneration in rats with acute renal injury

Division of Biochemistry, Osaka University School of Medicine, Japan.

Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), a potent mitogen for mature hepatocytes, possesses mitogenic and morphogenic activities for renal epithelial cells. To examine the renotropic function of HGF, we investigated the expression of HGF mRNA and HGF activity in the rat kidney after acute renal failure. When acute renal failure was induced by ischemia or by HgCl2 administration, a DNA synthesis occurred predominantly in the renal tubular cells located in the outer medulla with a peak at 48 h after the treatments. In both renal injuries, HGF mRNA in the kidney increased markedly, reaching a maximum 6 to 12 h after the treatments. HGF activity in the kidney also increased to three- to fourfold higher level than the normal level at 12 h after ischemic treatment or HgCl2 administration. In situ hybridization and immunohistochemical analysis indicated that both HGF mRNA and HGF protein were expressed in renal interstitial cells, presumably endothelial cells and macrophages, but not in tubular epithelial cells. In addition, HGF activity in the plasma of rats with renal ischemia or HgCl2 administration rapidly increased, reaching a maximum at 6 h after the treatment. One week after these injuries, HGF mRNA and HGF activity reverted to normal levels, and renal tubular cell regeneration ceased. Moreover, intravenous injection of human recombinant HGF into mice with acute renal failure caused by HgCl2 administration stimulated DNA synthesis of renal tubular cells in vivo.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
