Consequently, the current study examined the effect of sex steroids on Stx-1 cytotoxicity on, and Gb3 expression by, HGEN, HGEC and HPT.
The effect of 1, 2 or 7 days of exposure to physiologic or pharmacologic concentrations of progesterone, estradiol or testosterone on Gb3 expression by HGEN, HGEC or HPT was also examined.
HGEN, HGEC and HPT were chosen for examination in this study because these cell types, at least in vitro , have been shown to be injured by Stx-1 [ 6 7 8 ] . Mesangial cells were not examined since Stx-1 has not been demonstrated to affect their viability [ 13 ] . Previous studies have separately examined the cytotoxic effect of Stx-1 on HGEN [ 8 ] , HGEC [ 10 ] , and HPT [ 9 ] , however this is the first study to directly compare Stx-1 sensitivity of these renal cell types.
Stx-1 (72 hr exposure to toxin) dose-dependently killed HGEN, HGEC and HPT (Figure 1).
Although speculative, it is tempting to propose that HPT and HGEC may be early targets of Stx-1 and that this could play a role in the pathophysiologic processes that characterize renal injury in HUS.
