1 /7/ T cell dependent regulation of fibrogenesis Financial disclosure Matthias Mack University Hospital Regensburg, Germany Nothing to disclose Cellular origin of fibrosis Acitvation of fibroblasts EMT Fibrocytes. Fibroblasts. Epithelial Mesenchymal Transformation fibroblasts become activated by various factors (e.g. cytokines, TGFb / activin A, ANGII, FGF, PDGF, fibronectin, glucose, mechanical stress) activated fibroblasts (myofibroblasts) express asma, ecto5 nucleotidase, vimentin factors: TGFb EGF, IGFII, FGF MMP factors: BMP7 EMTfibroblasts express: asma (function?) and FSP (also expressed by fibroblasts and leukocytes) EMT has been described in patients: Diab. nephropathy, SLE, IgAN, chron. rejection Kalluri, Zeisberg, Strutz, Neilson and others

2 /7/. Production of collagen by hematopoietic cells fibrocytes What are fibroctyes? First description by R. Bucala: Bucala, R., Spiegel, L. A., Chesney, J., Hogan, M., and Cerami, A. (99). Circulating fibrocytes define a new leukocyte subpopulation that mediates tissue repair. Mol Med, 7. Fibrocyte precursors Migration Differentiation into fibrocytes Hematopoietic cells present in the peripheral blood and bone marrow, that produce collagen type I after culture about.5 % of total peripheral blood leukocytes Collagen I, CD5 (panleukocyte marker), morphology Detection of blood borne fibrocytes / fibroblasts in patients with chronic allograft nephropathy at mo after Tx Bone marrowderived fibrocytes in pulmonary fibrosis Lung tissue: bleomycin Lung tissue: saline female kidney into male recipient male kidney into female recipient Blue: YChrom.
