Reduced Expression of Extracellular Matrix Proteins in the Heart and Kidneys of Rats with Endotoxemia under the Effect of Actinonin

  • Published:
Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine Aims and scope

We studied modulation of the expression of extracellular matrix proteins under conditions of meprin inhibition in rats with LPS-induced endotoxemia. Endotoxemia increased the expression of type I, III, IV collagens and fibronectin in the renal tissue and type III and IV collagens in the heart. Meprin inhibitor actinonin reduced expression of both meprins and genes of extracellular matrix proteins, but the intensity of this effect in the heart and kidney was different. Inhibition of meprins in endotoxemia can prevent pathological remodeling of the extracellular matrix in the heart and kidney.
