Single‐Cell RNA Sequencing Delineates Renal Anti‐Fibrotic Mechanisms Mediated by TRPC6 Inhibition

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Single‐cell transcriptomics reveals how TRPC6 inhibition alters renal cell composition and gene expression in CKD. The study uncovers a novel endothelial subpopulation (ECRIN), highlights key inflammatory and fibrotic pathways, and identifies a Prnp‐driven network linked to fibrosis resolution, offering mechanistic insight into TRPC6 as a potential ...

Podocyte RIPK3 Deletion Improves Diabetic Kidney Disease by Attenuating NF‐κB p65 Driven Inflammation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Prevention and treatment of diabetic kidney disease (DKD) have become a major global public health challenge. This study shed new light on the underlying pathogenic mechanisms of podocyte injury in DKD and highlights the therapeutic potential of mitigating podocyte injury through inhibition of the RIPK3/NF‐κB p65‐mediated inflammatory response as a ...

Inhalation of mercury vapor can cause the toxic effects on rat kidney [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Dental amalgam has been used in dentistry as a filling material. The filler comprises mercury (Hg). It is considered one of the most important and widespread environmental pollutants, which poses a serious potential threat for the humans and animals ...

Aberrant Glycosylation of IgG in Children With Active Lupus Nephritis Alters Podocyte Metabolism and Causes Podocyte Injury

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Podocytes are integral to the maintenance of the glomerular filtration barrier. Their injury results in proteinuria and disease progression in lupus nephritis (LN). Aberrant IgG glycosylation drives podocyte injury in LN and leads to cytoskeletal rearrangement, motility changes, and decreased nephrin production.

The Glomerular Filtration Barrier: Components and Crosstalk

open access: yesInternational Journal of Nephrology, 2012
The glomerular filtration barrier is a highly specialized blood filtration interface that displays a high conductance to small and midsized solutes in plasma but retains relative impermeability to macromolecules.

Post‐COVID‐19 condition: clinical phenotypes, pathophysiological mechanisms, pathology, and management strategies

open access: yesThe Journal of Pathology, EarlyView.
Abstract Post‐COVID‐19 condition (PCC), also known as long COVID, is a complex multiple organ system condition that can develop and persist for months after acute COVID‐19. PCC encompasses a wide range of symptoms, resulting in heterogeneous clinical manifestations. These manifestations likely arise from diverse underlying pathophysiological mechanisms,

Biological Pathways and Potential Targets for Prevention and Therapy of Chronic Allograft Nephropathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Renal transplantation (RT) is the best option for patients with end-stage renal disease, but the half-life is limited to a decade due to progressive deterioration of renal function and transplant failure from chronic allograft nephropathy (CAN), which is

Distribution of basement membrane antigens in glomeruli of mice with autoimmune glomerulonephritis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
peer reviewedGlomerulonephritis was induced in mice by the repeated injection of human glomeruli or purified glomerular basement membrane. The glomerular basement membranes of nephritic animals were observed to develop subepithelial extensions, "spikes."
