Fine particulate matter (PM2.5) induces microRNA-192–5p causing glomerular damage

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
An association between air pollution and the incidence of membranous glomerulonephritis (MGN) has been shown in epidemiological studies. However, the causality of this relationship and data on potential pathomechanisms are still missing.

A comparative analysis of glomerulus development in the pronephros of medaka and zebrafish.

PLoS ONE, 2012
The glomerulus of the vertebrate kidney links the vasculature to the excretory system and produces the primary urine. It is a component of every single nephron in the complex mammalian metanephros and also in the primitive pronephros of fish and ...

Evolutionary Origin of the Proepicardium

Journal of Developmental Biology, 2013
The embryonic epicardium and the cardiac mesenchyme derived from it are critical to heart development. The embryonic epicardium arises from an extracardiac progenitor tissue called the proepicardium, a proliferation of coelomic cells located at the limit

Derivation and characterization of retinal pigment epithelium from urine‐derived iPSCs

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Age‐related macular degeneration causes vision loss via RPE dysfunction and loss. Traditional iPSC therapies rely on invasive biopsies, limiting scalability. Here, we utilize urine‐derived stem cells as an accessible source to generate u‐iPSCs, successfully differentiated into pigmented RPE. This “Urine‐to‐Retina” platform provides a promising path for
