ATX-LPA1 signaling regulates renal fibroblast migration. (a) Relative mRNA levels of LPA receptors in renal fibroblasts. ΔΔCT method was used to calculate relative gene expression of LPA receptors with β2MG being the internal control. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM. (b) Representative pictures of migrated renal fibroblasts in response to 10 μM LPC with indicated concentrations of recombinant ATX. Bars, 100 μm. (c) The addition of ATX to LPC enhanced renal fibroblast migration in an ATX concentration-dependent manner. (n = 3 cell preparations/group). (d,e) Pre-treatment with PAT-048 (d) or AM152 (e) suppressed renal fibroblast migration induced by ATX and LPC in a concentration-dependent manner. (n = 3 cell preparations/group). Data are expressed as mean ± SEM.
