The Pathophysiological Role of Thymosin β4 in the Kidney Glomerulus [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023 Diseases affecting the glomerulus, the filtration unit of the kidney, are a major cause of chronic kidney disease. Glomerular disease is characterised by injury of glomerular cells and is often accompanied by an inflammatory response that drives disease progression.

Extracellular matrix and vascular dynamics in the kidney of a murine model for Marfan syndrome.
PLoS ONE, 2023 Fibrillin-1 is a pivotal structural component of the kidney's glomerulus and peritubular tissue. Mutations in the fibrillin-1 gene result in Marfan syndrome (MFS), an autosomal dominant disease of the connective tissue.
