1 RESULTS: Exposure of CF to high glucose and EGF increased phosphorylated EGF-R, SGK-1, and fibronectin expression in wild-type cells. Glucose epidermal growth factor receptor Homo sapiens
2 Inhibition of the EGF-R reduced SGK-1 and fibronectin expression in control, and following exposure to EGF and high glucose conditions. Glucose epidermal growth factor receptor Homo sapiens
3 CONCLUSION: These results suggest that high glucose induced fibronectin expression is mediated through the EGF-R and downstream expression of SGK-1. Glucose epidermal growth factor receptor Homo sapiens
