“…Similar expression pattern of IGF system mRNA, mostly co-localizing with its protein, was observed in kidney of adult Snell dwarf mice [31]. Northern blot analysis revealed abundant expression of IGFBP-1 to -5, while IGFBP-6 could not be detected in the adult mouse kidney [8,19,21]. However, IGFBP-6 was detected by immunohistochemistry in epithelia of the distal tubule, and to some extent in epithelia of proximal tubule in the adult mouse kidney [32].…”

“…IGF-I is synthesized by glomerular endothelial, epithelial and mesangial cells suggesting a possible paracrine action of IGF-I in the renal glomerulus [16]. GH receptor (GHR), GH binding protein (GHBP) and all members of IGF system are expressed in the rodent kidney [8,[14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21].…”

“…This hypothesis suggests that a primary increase in proximal tubular reabsorption of sodium and/or chloride influences glomerular filtration, not via extracellular volume expansion but through enhanced tubuloglomerular feedback mediated by decreased distal delivery of solute to the macula densa. Habitual high intake of dietary protein or chronic infusion of an AGE-modified protein in rodents also leads to renal hypertrophy, suggesting that dietary AGE could mediate effects of high-protein diets to induce kidney growth (62,64). On the basis of this "tubular hypothesis," increased dietary protein plausibly could predispose to glomerular hyperfiltration because of structural changes in the kidney.…”
