Mesangial cells, specialized renal pericytes and cytomegalovirus infectivity: Implications for HCMV pathology in the glomerular vascular unit and post-transplant renal disease
BACKGROUND: Human Cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection is problematic after kidney transplantation. Human mesangial cells along with human glomerular endothelial cells and podocytes constitute the renal glomerular vascular unit (GVU). HCMV infection of the GVU is poorly understood. METHODS: GVU cells in...

description | BACKGROUND: Human Cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection is problematic after kidney transplantation. Human mesangial cells along with human glomerular endothelial cells and podocytes constitute the renal glomerular vascular unit (GVU). HCMV infection of the GVU is poorly understood. METHODS: GVU cells infectivity was analysed by microscopy and immunofluorescence. Cytokines profiles were measured by Luminex assays. Renal tissue analysis for HCMV infection was performed by immunohistochemistry. RESULTS: Mesangial cells and glomerular endothelial cells but not podocytes were permissive for both lab adapted and clinical strains of HCMV. Luminex analysis of cytokines expressed by mesangial cells exposed to the SBCMV clinical strain was examined. A Tricell infection model of the GVU maintains >90% viability with a unique cytokine profile. Finally, we show αSMA stained mesangial cells permissive for HCMV in renal tissue from a transplant patient. CONCLUSIONS: HCMV infection of mesangial cells induces angiogenic and proinflammatory cytokines that could contribute to glomerular inflammation. |
