Bone morphogenetic
protein-7 (BMP7) controls ureteric bud and collecting duct
morphogenesis in a dose-dependent manner (Piscione TD, Yager TD, Gupta
IR, Grinfeld B, Pei Y, Attisono L, Wrana JL, and Rosenblum ND.
Am J Physiol Renal Physiol 273: F961-F975, 1997). We defined cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying these effects
in embryonic kidney explants and in the mIMCD-3 cell model of
collecting tubule morphogenesis. Low-dose (0.25 nM) BMP7
significantly increased tubule number and cell proliferation.
Similar to BMP2, high-dose (10 nM) BMP7 inhibited cell
proliferation and stimulated apoptosis. To define molecular mechanisms,
we identified signaling events downstream of BMP7. High-dose BMP7, but
not low-dose BMP7, activated Smad1 in mIMCD-3 cells. Moreover,
the inhibitory effects of high-dose BMP7 and BMP2, but not the
stimulatory effects of low-dose BMP7, on tubulogenesis and cell
proliferation were significantly reduced in mIMCD-3 cells stably
expressing Smad1(
458), a dominant negative mutant form of
Smad1, but not in cells stably expressing wild-type Smad1. We conclude
that BMP7 exerts dose-dependent effects on ureteric bud or collecting
duct cell proliferation and apoptosis by signaling via Smad1-dependent
and Smad1-independent pathways.
