Minimal change disease is a common cause of nephrotic syndrome. In general, patients with minimal change disease respond to corticosteroids and have excellent long-term renal survival. However, some patients have less favorable outcome.

Functional and spatial analysis of C. elegans SYG-1 and SYG-2, orthologs of the Neph/nephrin cell adhesion module directing selective synaptogenesis. [PDF]
The assembly of specific synaptic connections represents a prime example of cellular recognition. Members of the Ig superfamily are among the most ancient proteins represented in the genomes of both mammalian and invertebrate organisms, where they ...

Nephrin is necessary for podocyte recovery following injury in an adult mature glomerulus.
Nephrin (Nphs1) is an adhesion protein that is expressed at the podocyte intercellular junction in the glomerulus. Nphs1 mutations in humans or deletion in animal genetic models results in a developmental failure of foot process formation.

Factors Affecting Circulating mRNA for Nephrin [PDF]
Kidney disease affects more than 20 million individuals in the United States alone. Although the causes of kidney failure are diverse, the glomerular filtration barrier is often the target of injury. Identification of the type of disease is important for targeting therapy.

Nephrin-deleted mature podocyte fail to recover following protamine sulfate injury.
(A) SEM images of kidneys from 8 weeks old Nphs1fl/fl,iCre(ER)T2 mice following protamine sulfate injury. Nphs1fl/fl,iCre(ER)T2 mice that received tamoxifen show failure of foot process recovery in response to heparin sulfate following injury with ...

Nephrin Expression Is Reduced in Human Diabetic Nephropathy
We studied the distribution of nephrin in renal biopsies from 17 patients with diabetes and nephrotic syndrome (7 type 1 and 10 type 2 diabetes), 6 patients with diabetes and microalbuminuria (1 type 1 and 5 type 2 diabetes), and 10 normal subjects ...

Nephrin phosphorylation regulates podocyte adhesion through the PINCH-1-ILK-α-parvin complex [PDF]
Nephrin, a structural molecule, is also a signaling molecule afterphosphorylation. Inhibition of nephrin phosphorylation iscorrelated with podocyte injury.
