Podocalyxin in Rat Platelets and Megakaryocytes [PDF]
Podocalyxin is a membrane protein of rat podocytes and endothelial cells. It has not been described in other cell types, and no amino acid or DNA sequence data are available about it. Here we show that podocalyxin antigens are present in rat platelets and megakaryocytes.

Podocalyxin regulates murine lung vascular permeability by altering endothelial cell adhesion. [PDF]
Despite the widespread use of CD34-family sialomucins (CD34, podocalyxin and endoglycan) as vascular endothelial cell markers, there is remarkably little known of their vascular function.

Podocalyxin regulates pronephric glomerular development in zebrafish [PDF]
Vertebrate glomerular podocytes possess a highly sialylated transmembrane glycoprotein, Podocalyxin. In mammals, the sialic acid of Podocalyxin plays a crucial role in the formation of the characteristic podocyte architecture required for glomerular filtration. We examined the function of Podocalyxin in the developing zebrafish pronephros by disrupting

Urinary podocalyxin: Is it a real index of disease activity in egyptian patients lupus nephritis?
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an inflammatory autoimmune disease characterized by production of a number of antinuclear antibodies. Podocyte injury is an important feature and can be detected by several markers including podocalyxin.

Podocalyxin Is a Marker of Poor Prognosis in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma. [PDF]
Podocalyxin-like 1 is a transmembrane glyco-protein whose overexpression associates in many cancers with poor prognosis and unfavorable clinicopathological characteristics.

Background: Recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEPO) is an effective treatment for renal anemia. Recently, there is evidence to suggest that rHuEPO may reduce podocyte injury in diabetic kidney disease (DKD).

Relationship between Elevated Maternal Serum Podocalyxin Concentrations with Blood Pressure Values and Routine Laboratory Parameters in Preeclampsia [PDF]
Podocalyxin (PCX) is a glycoprotein member of the CD34 transmembrane sialomucin family and covers the surface of podocytes. It is assumed to be a marker of glomerular endothelial injury. In conditions, podocalyxin excretion in the urine is increased as a

Identification of novel molecular signatures of IgA nephropathy through an integrative -omics analysis [PDF]
IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is the most prevalent among primary glomerular diseases worldwide. Although our understanding of IgAN has advanced significantly, its underlying biology and potential drug targets are still unexplored.

The Role of Podocalyxin in Health and Disease [PDF]
Podocalyxin, a sialomucin most closely related to CD34 and endoglycan, is expressed by kidney podocytes, hematopoietic progenitors, vascular endothelia, and a subset of neurons; aberrant expression has recently been implicated in a range of cancers.
