Collecting duct cells that lack normal cilia have mislocalized vasopressin-2 receptorsTakamitsu Saigusa
Dept of Medicine, Division of Nephrology, Medical University of South Carolina, 173 Ashley Ave, Charleston, SC 29425, USA
Am J Physiol Renal Physiol 302:F801-8. 2012..Whether such apical localization contributes to enhanced fluid retention and hypertension in PKD remains to be determined...
ATP as a mediator of macula densa cell signallingP Darwin Bell
Department of Medicine, Division of Nephrology, Children s Research Institute, Medical University of South Carolina, Charleston, SC, USA
Purinergic Signal 5:461-71. 2009..However, the critical step in signalling would appear to be the regulated release of ATP across the basolateral membrane of macula densa cells...
Loss of primary cilia upregulates renal hypertrophic signaling and promotes cystogenesisP Darwin Bell
Ralph H Johnson Veterans Administration Medical Center, Charleston, South Carolina 29425, USA
J Am Soc Nephrol 22:839-48. 2011..These data suggest that events initiating hypertrophic signaling, such as structural or functional loss of renal mass, may accelerate progression of adult polycystic kidney disease toward end-stage renal disease...

Cilia movement regulates expression of the Raf-1 kinase inhibitor proteinKelli M Sas
Ralph H Johnson Veterans Affairs Medical Center, Medical University of South Carolina, Charleston, 29425, USA
Am J Physiol Renal Physiol 300:F1163-70. 2011..In terms of polycystic kidney disease, loss of cilia and therefore sensitivity to flow may lead to reduced RKIP levels, activation of the MAPK pathway, and contribute to the formation of cysts...
Research Grants
- CELLULAR MECHANISMS FOR TUBULOGLOMERULAR FEEDBACK SYSTEMPhillip Bell; Fiscal Year: 2000..These studies should provide important new insights into the generation and transmission of tubuloglomerular feedback signals from macula densa cells to arteriolar contractile elements. ..
- SODIUM-CALCUIM EXCHANGE IN THE RENAL MICROCIRCULATIONPhillip Bell; Fiscal Year: 2003....
- CELLULAR MECHANISMS FOR TUBULOGLOMERULAR FEEDBACK SYSTEMPhillip Bell; Fiscal Year: 2004..These studies will provide important new insights into this macula densa cell-to-cell TGF signaling pathway which serves a vital role in the regulation of renal hemodynamics. ..
- Cellular Mechanisms for Tubuloglomerular FeedbackPhillip Bell; Fiscal Year: 2007..Overall these studies should provide important new information regarding the role of ATP in macula densa signaling, activation of the tubuloglomerular feedback mechanism, and control of glomerular hemodynamics. ..
- CALCIUM ENTRY REGULATED BY CILIA IN POLYCYSTIC DISEASEPhillip Bell; Fiscal Year: 2006..The third aim is to define the role of cilia in the spatial organization of TRP channels at the apical membrane. The role of cilia cytoskeletal interactions in the regulating TRP location and activity will also be addressed. ..
