Systematic analysis of a novel human renal glomerulus-enriched gene expression dataset [PDF]
Glomerular diseases account for the majority of cases with chronic renal failure. Several genes have been identified with key relevance for glomerular function.

Identification of drug repurposing candidates for the treatment of polycystic kidney disease
Background and Purpose Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a leading cause of end‐stage renal disease with limited treatment options. Drug repurposing offers a promising strategy to find effective treatments. Experimental Approach We identified birinapant, bardoxolone methyl and salicylic acid as repurposing candidates for ADPKD and

Alterations of glomerular basement membrane charge and structure in diabetic nephropathy.
We examined glomerular basement membrane anionic site distribution identified by cationic gold in seven patients with insulin-dependent and four patients with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, presenting a spectrum of clinical and glomerular ...

Fn14 signalling participates in pristane‐induced murine lupus through exacerbating oxidative stress
Background and Purpose Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease characterized by oxidative stress and immune dysregulation. Fibroblast growth factor‐inducible 14 (Fn14) has been implicated in tissue injury, but its specific role in SLE pathogenesis remains unclear.

Hereditary disorders of the glomerular basement membrane
Increased knowledge of the biochemical composition of the glomerular basement membrane (GBM) and the introduction of molecular genetics has shed new light on the hereditary disorders of the GBM. In this review three disorders are highlighted. About 85% of the cases reported as Alport syndrome are transmitted as the X-linked form and are due to ...

GCN2 in proteostasis: structural logic, signalling networks and disease
Threats to protein synthesis activate the kinase GCN2, initiating the integrated stress response (ISR). GCN2 is triggered by stalled ribosomes and uncharged tRNAs, which accumulate when amino acids are scarce. The ISR adjusts cellular physiology by promoting redox balance, protein quality control, and mitochondrial optimisation.

The Glomerular Filtration Barrier: Components and Crosstalk
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.

In vivo biosynthesis and turnover of glomerular basement membrane in diabetic rats
Glomerular basement membrane (GBM) was labeled in vivo by the injection of tracer amounts of tritiated proline into normal and streptozotocin-diabetic rats.

The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a dynamic scaffold that orchestrates tissue architecture and cellular communication. A critical but underexplored interplay between proteases and cluster of differentiation molecules (CD) governs ECM turnover and directs cell fate.
