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

Reflective versus predictive value of urinary podocin, nephrin, and their ratio in diabetic kidney disease: a 12-month retrospective cohort study [PDF]
IntroductionPodocyte injury plays a central role in the development of diabetic kidney disease (DKD). Urinary podocin, nephrin, and the podocin–nephrin ratio (PNR) have been proposed as early indicators of glomerular injury, but their prognostic value ...

Dynamics and Predictive Values of Urinary Podocyte Biomarkers Following SGLT2 Inhibition in CKD [PDF]
Podocyte injury is an early hallmark of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and can be influenced by SGLT2 inhibitors (SGLT2i). Early effects of SGLT2i include transient estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) dip and reduced proteinuria; however, the ...

Nephrotic syndrome is frequently associated with pathogenic variants in NPHS2 (podocin), including the common and severe R138Q substitution. Using conditionally immortalized human podocytes expressing Myc-tagged podocin variants (G92C, V180M, R138Q ...

NPHS2 Revisited Through 208 Cases and Podocin Complex Modeling [PDF]
Introduction: Steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome (SRNS) is the leading cause of chronic glomerular disease in individuals under 25 years of age. Biallelic variants in NPHS2, encoding podocin, are the most common monogenic etiology.

The MEC-2E isoform with a large C-terminal completely rescues the touch sensation defect of C. elegans [PDF]
Human podocin and C. elegans MEC-2 belong to the stomatin protein superfamily. They share 49% identity and 91% similarity both in the evolutionary conserved PHB domain (123-284 aa) and in the oligomerization region (273-351 aa).

Mapping of the podocin proximity-dependent proteome reveals novel components of the kidney podocyte foot process [PDF]
Introduction: The unique architecture of glomerular podocytes is integral to kidney filtration. Interdigitating foot processes extend from the podocyte cell body, wrap around fenestrated capillaries, and form specialized junctional complexes termed slit ...

Co-Localization of Nephrin, Podocin, and the Actin Cytoskeleton [PDF]
The discovery of the genes for nephrin and podocin, which are mutated in two types of congenital nephrotic syndrome, was pivotal in establishing the podocyte as the central component of the glomerular filtration barrier.

Longitudinal Study of the Vascular Glycocalyx and Urinary Podocyte Markers During Pregnancy [PDF]
Background We aimed to assess the longitudinal changes of glycocalyx, a proteoglycan/glycoprotein layer that lines and protects endothelial cells in normotensive pregnancies (NPs); to correlate glycocalyx parameters with kidney injury markers (podocin ...

Early detection of active glomerular lesions in dogs and cats using podocin [PDF]
In veterinary medicine, sensitive and specific markers of the early stages of renal failure still remain to be established. Podocytes could be a promising diagnostic tool in veterinary nephrology, especially in the differentiation of active pathological ...
