The underlying mechanism of the hyperproliferative response of human autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) epithelia was studied. Epidermal growth factor (EGF) protein is highly expressed in ADPKD cyst epithelia in vivo, and primary cultures are hyperesponsive to mitogenic stimulation by EGF in vitro. Doses of > 1 ng/ml EGF were highly mitogenic to ADPKD epithelia. 3H-labeled thymidine proliferation assays showed that cyst fluids and ADPKD epithelial cell-conditioned media also stimulated renal epithelial cell proliferation and contained EGF immunoreactivity (6, 30, and 37 kDa) as detected by Western blots. Radioimmunoassays detected mean levels of 2.87 and 1.4 ng/ml EGF in cyst fluids from early (proliferative) and end-stage ADPKD cysts, respectively. Scatchard analysis of 125I-labeled EGF binding to apical and basolateral membrane showed high-affinity binding to basolateral membranes of normal and ADPKD kidneys but additional unique high-affinity receptor binding to apical membranes of ADPKD but not normal kidneys. Cross-linking analysis and antiphosphotyrosine Western analysis demonstrated functionally active apical EGF receptors at 150-170 kDa. These results suggest mediation of cyst expansion via an autocrine loop involving EGF synthesis and processing by cyst epithelial cells, apical secretion into cyst lumens, and subsequent binding to and phosphorylation of apical membrane EGF receptors. These findings are consistent with a membrane protein polarization defect in ADPKD cyst epithelia.
