Parp1 protects against Aag-dependent alkylation-induced nephrotoxicity in a sex-dependent manner [PDF]
ephrotoxicity is a common toxic side-effect of chemotherapeutic alkylating agents. Although the base excision repair (BER) pathway is essential in repairing DNA alkylation damage, under certain conditions the initiation of BER produces toxic repair ...

Early Glomerular Filtration Defect and Severe Renal Disease in Podocin-Deficient Mice [PDF]
Podocytes are specialized epithelial cells covering the basement membrane of the glomerulus in the kidney. The molecular mechanisms underlying the role of podocytes in glomerular filtration are still largely unknown. We generated podocin-deficient (Nphs2-/-) mice to investigate the function of podocin, a protein expressed at the insertion of the slit ...

Objective Podocytes are integral to the maintenance of the glomerular filtration barrier. Their injury results in proteinuria and disease progression in lupus nephritis (LN). Aberrant IgG glycosylation drives podocyte injury in LN and leads to cytoskeletal rearrangement, motility changes, and decreased nephrin production.

Specific Podocin Mutations Correlate with Age of Onset in Steroid-Resistant Nephrotic Syndrome [PDF]
Mutations in the gene encoding podocin (NPHS2) cause autosomal recessive steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome (SRNS). For addressing the possibility of a genotype-phenotype correlation between podocin mutations and age of onset, a worldwide cohort of 430 patients from 404 different families with SRNS were screened by direct sequencing.

Rare Functional Variants of Podocin (NPHS2) Promoter in Patients With Nephrotic Syndrome
Podocin (NPHS2) is a component of the glomerular slit-diaphragm, with major regulatory functions in renal permeability of proteins. Loss of podocin and decrease in resynthesis may influence the outcome of proteinuric renal disease such as segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), and promoter functionality plays a key role in this process.

Development of a Novel Diagnostic Test Using Podocyturia as a Biomarker for Detection of Kidney Damage [PDF]
Primary glomerular diseases are the most common cause of progressive chronic kidney disease (CKD) in dogs, a common and significant source of illness that often progresses to kidney failure.

Regeneration and Experimental Orthotopic Transplantation of a Bioengineered Kidney [PDF]
Over 100,000 individuals in the United States currently await kidney transplantation, while 400,000 individuals live with end-stage kidney disease requiring hemodialysis. The creation of a transplantable graft to permanently replace kidney function would
