Abstract: | P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1) is an adhesion molecule mainly expressed on the surface of leukocytes and platelets, which plays a vital part in immune recognition, inflammatory response and thrombosis. The prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is increased gradually and it has been one of major diseases that threaten the world's public health. In addition, its etiology is complicated, and most of the pathogenesis is incompletely understood. Researches show that PSGL-1 participates in the development of kidney diseases in a variety of ways, and its mechanism may involve signaling pathways such as TGF-β1/Smad and PI3K/AKT/GSK-3β, as well as key renal regulators such as connective tissue growth factor and chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 2. This review summarizes the research progress of PSGL-1 in renal fibrosis, lupus nephritis, obesity-related kidney disease and acute kidney injury. |
