Glycyrol Alleviates Acute Kidney Injury by Inhibiting Ferroptsis. [PDF]

open access: yesInt J Mol Sci
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common clinical problem with high morbidity and mortality. The discovery of ferroptosis has provided novel insights into the mechanisms underlying AKI and paves the way for developing ferroptosis-based approaches to treat ...

Filling the Gap: Drosophila Nephrocytes as Model System in Kidney Research [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2019
New and efficient sequencing technologies are constantly identifying novel gene variants in patients that may be the genetic cause of renal diseases. Recent studies show that, even for adult patients with CKD, monogenic causes can be detected in around 10% of patients.[1][1] Novel causative ...

dKlf15 overexpression increases the number of functional nephrocytes in adults and prevents age-dependent nephrocyte dysfunction. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
(A) Pericardial nephrocytes from control (progeny of Dot-Gal4 outcrossed to w1118; A’) and dKlf15 over-expressing flies (Dot-Gal4; UAS-dKlf15; A”) stained with anti-dKlf15 (1:100) and anti-Amnionless antibodies (1:100). Scale bar = 50 μm.

Gba1b is expressed in the brain, fat body and gut. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
(A) The Gba1b gene expression pattern, as assessed by the expression of mCherry under the Gba1b endogenous promoter (red channel), overlaps with immunostaining for the glial marker Repo (green channel, top panel), but not with the neuronal marker Elav ...

On the Nephrocytes of Pediculus humanus

open access: yesParasitology, 1921
In Pediculus humanus are found two groups of excretory-accumulatory cells known as nephrocytes.The one group, the peri-oesophageal, lies ventrally and consists of large cells aggregated usually in two masses about the oesophagus anterior to the reniform salivary glands.The second group lies dorsally and consists of disseminated cell aggregates linked ...

The sorting nexin Snx21 promotes flotillin‐mediated endocytosis

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
In this study, we describe a novel function of the previously uncharacterized Snx21 protein as a specific positive regulator of flotillin‐mediated endocytic trafficking. Snx21 is recruited to endosomal membranes via binding to PI(3)P, and it colocalizes with flotillins on the surface of late endosomes.

A Quarter Century of EHD Protein Research: From Endosomal Recycling to Ciliopathies

open access: yesTraffic, Volume 27, Issue 3, September 2026.
Human EHD protein subcellular localization. ABSTRACT Eps15 homology domain‐containing proteins comprise a conserved family of membrane‐remodeling ATPases that regulate endocytic trafficking, membrane fission, receptor recycling, primary ciliogenesis and membrane dynamics across eukaryotes. Since the initial identification of EHD1 and its Caenorhabditis

The Evolution of Giant Clam Science: From Foundational Studies to Emerging Frontiers

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.
This review synthesizes nearly two centuries of giant clam research, identifying dominant themes, knowledge gaps, and emerging opportunities. Ecology, physiology, aquaculture, genomics, and biomineralization dominate the field, whereas anatomy and biotechnology remain underexplored. Future progress requires stronger integration of genomics, physiology,

Electron microscopy of Drosophila garland cell nephrocytes: Optimal preparation, immunostaining and STEM tomography [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Due to its structural and molecular similarities to mammalian podocytes, the Drosophila nephrocyte emerged as a model system to study podocyte development and associated diseases.

APOL1-G1 in Nephrocytes Induces Hypertrophy and Accelerates Cell Death [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2016
People of African ancestry carrying certain APOL1 mutant alleles are at elevated risk of developing renal diseases. However, the mechanisms underlying APOL1-associated renal diseases are unknown. Because the APOL1 gene is unique to humans and some primates, new animal models are needed to understand the function of APOL1 in vivo.
