Myo1e impairment results in actin reorganization, podocyte dysfunction, and proteinuria in zebrafish and cultured podocytes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
BackgroundPodocytes serve as an important constituent of the glomerular filtration barrier. Recently, we and others identified Myo1e as a key molecular component of the podocyte cytoskeleton.ResultsMyo1e mRNA and protein was expressed in human and mouse ...

Thin glomerular basement membrane disease [PDF]

open access: yesKidney International, 2001
Isolated microscopic hematuria that begins in childhood and is of glomerular origin has a rather limited differential diagnosis, with Alport syndrome, IgA nephropathy, and benign familial hematuria as the most prevalent conditions. In a series of 322 children with persistent hematuria for longer than 6 months, biopsies were classified as IgA ...

ANCA-mediated crescentic glomerulonephritis with linear deposition of IgG along the glomerular basement membrane

open access: yesSaudi Journal of Kidney Diseases and Transplantation, 2014
Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitides is an important cause of rapidly progressive glomerulonephritides (RPGN), and they are classically described as pauci-immune diseases as evidenced by the absence of immune deposits on ...

Glomerulonephritis associated with systemic sclerosis: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Medical Case Reports, 2023
Background Systemic sclerosis is a multiorgan autoimmune disease that can overlap with other rheumatologic disorders; however, co-occurrence with antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis is rare.

Case Report: Elderly anti-GBM antibody disease with diffuse non-hereditary glomerular basement membrane thinning of uncertain etiology

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine
Anti-glomerular basement membrane (GBM) antibody disease is an autoimmune-mediated rapidly progressive renal injury. The coexistence of diffuse non-hereditary glomerular basement membrane thinning of uncertain etiology in elderly patients is clinically ...

Glomerular Basement Membrane Protein Expression and the Diagnosis and Prognosis of Autosomal Dominant Alport Syndrome

open access: yesKidney Medicine, 2019
Alport syndrome is a hereditary glomerular nephritis associated with hearing loss and eye abnormalities and is classified as X-linked Alport syndrome, autosomal recessive Alport syndrome, and autosomal dominant Alport syndrome.

Canagliflozin Alleviates Diabetic Glomerular Endothelial Injury via Melibiose in a Microbiota‐Dependent Manner

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Canagliflozin treatment reshapes the gut microbiota in DKD and elevates levels of melibiose, a metabolite derived from Roseburia intestinalis. Melibiose directly binds to and enhances the enzymatic activity of glyoxalase 1, leading to decreased methylglyoxal accumulation.

ER stress and basement membrane defects combine to cause glomerular and tubular renal disease resulting from Col4a1 mutations in mice

open access: yesDisease Models & Mechanisms, 2016
Collagen IV is a major component of basement membranes, and mutations in COL4A1, which encodes collagen IV alpha chain 1, cause a multisystemic disease encompassing cerebrovascular, eye and kidney defects.

ANGPTL4 Exacerbates Renal Injury in Diabetic Kidney Disease by Impairing Podocyte Lipophagy via Compromised Lysosomal Degradative Function

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In diabetic kidney disease, elevated podocyte ANGPTL4 is linked to reduced TFEB nuclear localization and compromised lysosomal degradative function. These changes impair podocyte lipophagy and promote lipid‐droplet accumulation and podocyte injury, which may contribute to renal injury progression.
