Abstract:
AngRem104 is a novel gene recently identified in human mesangial cells induced by angiotensin II. cDNA microarray was performed to screen the functional genes related to AngRem104. Thirty-one genes were up-regulated while 2 genes were down-regulated. Of all the up-regulated genes, fibronectin, one of the major extracellular matrixes, was up-regulated with over-expression of AngRem104.
