Glycoxidised LDL induced the upregulation of Axl receptor tyrosine kinase and its ligand in mouse mesangial cells.

AIM/HYPOTHESIS: Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) is subjected to glycoxidation in diabetes, and a novel signalling mechanism by which glycoxidised LDL functions in glomerular mesangial cells remains to be ascertained. METHODS: We performed gene expression analysis in mouse glomerular mesangial cells tr...
