The existence of two splice variants L- and S-endoglin which differ in their cytoplasmic domain has already been shown in human and mice. Endoglin is located on the cell surfaces of cultured hepatic stellate cells and transdifferentiated myofibroblasts suggesting that this receptor might be associated with the profibrogenic attributes of these liver cell subpopulations. We now show that endoglin expression is increased in transdifferentiating hepatic stellate cells and in two models of liver fibrosis (i.e. bile duct ligation and carbon tetrachloride model) and further detectable in cultured portal fibroblasts representing another important fibrogenic cell type but not in hepatocytes. In respect to TGF-β1-signalling, we demonstrate that endoglin interacts with and is phosphorylated by TβRII. In hepatic stellate cells, TGF-β1 upregulates endoglin expression most likely via the ALK5 pathway and requires the SP1 transcription factor. We further identified a novel rat splice variant that is structurally and functionally different from that identified in human and mouse. Transient overexpression of endoglin resulted in a strong increase of TGF-β1-driven Smad1/5 phosphorylation and α-smooth muscle actin expression in a hepatic stellate cell line. In supernatants of respective cultures, we could detect the ectodomain of endoglin suggesting that shedding is a further key process involved in the regulation of this surface receptor."xsd:string |
