| 초록 | Objectives : Epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) of the peritoneal mesothelial cells play a key role in peritoneal fibrosis resulting from peritoneal dialysis (PD). The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of sorafenib on EMT in peritoneal mesothelial cells. Methods : Human peritoneal mesothelial cells (HPMCs) were cultured in a media containing TGF-β with or without sorafenib. For the in vivo study, 20 male Sprague-Dawley rats weight 210−230 g were purchased from the Orient Co. and were divided into 3 groups. The C group received injection of normal saline. The CHX group received chlorhexidine gluconate (CG) every other day for 4 weeks. The CHX+SF group were received CG and cotreated with sorafenib. At the end of 4 weeks, rats were sacrificed for morphometric and histologic analyses. Results : Exposure of HPMCs to TGF-β for 24 h decreased the expression of epithelial cell markers and increased the expression of mesenchymal markers and phosphorylation of Smad2 and Erk. Cotreatment with sorafenib reversed these changes. Macroscopic findings showed that severe inflammatory changes of peritoneum and cocoon formation were confirmed in CHX group. The sorafenib ameliorated these peritoneal changes. Microscopic findings showed that the thickness of the peritoneal membrane in CHX was significantly increased compared with that of the C group. Cotreatment with sorafenib decreased peritoneal thickness and the expression level of the collagen. Conclusions : The present study showed that sorafenib ameliorates the EMT in peritoneal mesothelial cells. |
