Ameliorative effects of glycine on cobalt chloride‐induced hepato‐renal toxicity in rats

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, 2023
Background The important roles of liver and kidney in the elimination of injurious chemicals make them highly susceptible to the noxious activities of various toxicants including cobalt chloride (CoCl2). This study was designed to investigate the role of

New perspectives on the renal slit diaphragm protein podocin [PDF]

Modern Pathology, 2011
Podocin is a critical component of the glomerular filtration barrier, its mutations causing recessive steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome. A GenBank analysis of the human podocin (NPHS2) gene resulted in the possible existence of a new splice variant of podocin in the kidney, missing the in-frame of exon 5, encoding the prohibitin homology domain ...

Lmx1b and FoxC Combinatorially Regulate Podocin Expression in Podocytes [PDF]

Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2014
Podocin is a key protein of the kidney podocyte slit diaphragm protein complex, an important part of the glomerular filtration barrier. Mutations in the human podocin gene NPHS2 cause familial or sporadic forms of renal disease owing to the disruption of filtration barrier integrity.

Urinary podocin level as a predictor of diabetic kidney disease [PDF]

Journal of Nephropathology, 2019
Background: Albuminuria showed to be a deteriorating condition in diabetic kidney disease (DKD) associated with high morbidity and mortality. A need for a novel marker for early detection of DKD development and progression becomes mandating.

Elevated Levels of Urinary Podocyte-Derived Microparticles in Nephrotic Syndrome

Indonesian Biomedical Journal, 2023
BACKGROUND: Nephrotic syndrome (NS) is the most common glomerular disease in childhood. The proposed hypothesis for the pathogenesis of this disease has changed over time, from immune dysregulation theory and systemic circulating factors theory, to the ...

Broadening the Spectrum of Diseases Related to Podocin Mutations [PDF]

Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2003
A total of 179 children with sporadic nephrotic syndrome were screened for podocin mutations: 120 with steroid resistance, and 59 with steroid dependence/frequent relapses. Fourteen steroid-resistant patients presented homozygous mutations that were associated with early onset of proteinuria and variable renal lesions, including one case with mesangial

Evaluation of podocin in urine in horses using qualitative and quantitative methods.

PLoS ONE, 2020
No sensitive method for diagnosing early kidney dysfunction in horses has been identified so far. Many studies carried out in humans and small animals show that podocin can be useful to diagnose various kidney diseases, mainly affecting the glomeruli ...

In situ evaluation of podocin in normal and glomerular diseases [PDF]

Kidney International, 2003
Mutations of the NPHS2 gene are responsible for autosomal-recessive steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome. Its product, podocin, faces the slit diaphragm area with its two ends in the cytoplasm of foot processes.We generated rabbit polyclonal antibodies against conjugated peptides from human podocin N- and C-termini, and studied podocin and synaptopodin

A Compendium of Urinary Biomarkers Indicative of Glomerular Podocytopathy [PDF]

, 2013
It is well known that glomerular podocyte injury and loss are present in numerous nephropathies and that the pathophysiologic consecution of disease hinges upon the fate of the podocyte.

Sorting Nexin 9 facilitates podocin endocytosis in the injured podocyte [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2017
AbstractThe irreversibility of glomerulosclerotic changes depends on the degree of podocyte injury. We have previously demonstrated the endocytic translocation of podocin to the subcellular area in severely injured podocytes and found that this process is the primary disease trigger.
