Macrophage‐derived Galectin‐3 amplifies TGFβ1 signaling to drive diabetic kidney fibrosis: a novel therapeutic target. Abstract Over 30% of patients with type 2 diabetes develop diabetic kidney disease (DKD), which has emerged as a major contributor to end stage renal disease.

Podocalyxin promotes vascular barrier function
The CD34-family sialomucin, podocalyxin (Podxl), is broadly expressed on the luminal face of blood vessels in adult mammals; however, its biological function on vascular endothelial cells (vEC) is not well-defined. Here, we reveal specific functions for podocalyxin in maintaining endothelial barriers using HUVEC monolayers as a model in vitro. Detailed

DNA methylation map in circulating leukocytes mirrors subcutaneous adipose tissue methylation pattern: a genome-wide analysis from non-obese and obese patients [PDF]
The characterization of the epigenetic changes within the obesity-related adipose tissue will provide new insights to understand this metabolic disorder, but adipose tissue is not easy to sample in population-based studies.

The MAL protein is crucial for proper membrane condensation at the ciliary base, which is required for primary cilium elongation [PDF]
The base of the primary cilium contains a zone of condensed membranes whose importance is not known. Here, we have studied the involvement of MAL, a tetraspanning protein that exclusively partitions into condensed membrane fractions, in the condensation ...

Background: This investigation was managed to explore whether miR-193a in combination with two podocytes, namely, Wilms tumor type 1 (WT1) and podocalyxin (PODXL), were feasible in estimating onset and prognosis of idiopathic membranous nephropathy (IMN).

GIV/Girdin is a central hub for profibrogenic signalling networks during liver fibrosis. [PDF]
Progressive liver fibrosis is characterized by the deposition of collagen by activated hepatic stellate cells (HSCs). Activation of HSCs is a multiple receptor-driven process in which profibrotic signals are enhanced and antifibrotic pathways are ...

Erk5 is a mediator to TGFβ1-induced loss of phenotype and function in human podocytes. [PDF]
Background: Podocytes are highly specialized cells integral to the normal functioning kidney, however, in diabetic nephropathy injury occurs leading to a compromised phenotype and podocyte dysfunction which critically produces podocyte loss with ...
