Role of the activin-follistatin system in the morphogenesis and regeneration of the renal tubules.

I Kojima1, A Maeshima, Y Q Zhang.   

Abstract

Activin A inhibits branching tubulogenesis of the kidney during development. Activin A also inhibits branching tubulogenesis in MDCK cells, an in vitro tubulogenesis model. On the other hand, follistatin, an antagonist of activin A, reverses the effect of activin A and induces branching tubulogenesis. Follistatin also promotes tubular regeneration after ischemia/reperfusion injury. The activin/follistatin system is one of the important regulatory systems modulating developmental and regeneration processes of the kidney.
