http://purl.uniprot.org/citations/27519267http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#comment"Sterile 20/SPS1-related proline/alanine-rich kinase (SPAK) can stimulate production of proinflammatory cytokines and interact with inflammation-related molecules. However, it has yet to be determined whether SPAK plays a pathophysiological role in the complicated pathological mechanisms of IgA nephropathy (IgAN), which is mainly characterized by mesangial cell (MC) proliferation and is the most common form of glomerulonephritis. In the present study, we examined the pathophysiological role of SPAK in IgAN using a mouse model and cell models. Our results clearly showed that (1) SPAK deficiency prevents the development of IgAN and inhibits production of immune/inflammatory mediators and T cell activation and proliferation; and (2) when primed with IgA immune complexes (IgA IC), both peritoneal macrophages and primary MCs from SPAK knockout mice show markedly reduced production of proinflammatory cytokines and inhibition of NF-κB/MAPKs activation. We proposed that activation of SPAK and the NF-κB/MAPKs signaling pathway in MCs, macrophages and T cells of the glomerulus may be a mechanism underlying the pathogenesis of IgAN. The activation of SPAK in renal tubuloepithelial cells either directly by IgA IC or an indirect action of the activated MCs or infiltrating mononuclear leukocytes seen in the kidney may further aggravate the disease process of IgAN. Our results suggest that SPAK is a potential therapeutic target for the glomerular disorder."xsd:string
