NPHS2 mutation analysis shows genetic heterogeneityof steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome and lowpost-transplant recurrence [PDF]
NPHS2 mutation analysis shows genetic heterogeneity of steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome and low post-transplant recurrence.BackgroundMutations of NPHS2 are causative in familial autosomal-recessive (AR) and sporadic steroid-resistant nephrotic ...

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.

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

Cloning of Rat Homologue of Podocin [PDF]
Podocin is identified as a product of the gene mutated in a patient with autosomal recessive steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome. Although podocin is reported to be located at the slit diaphragm area, the precise role of podocin for maintaining the barrier function of the slit diaphragm has not been clearly elucidated.

Podocin mutations in sporadic focal-segmental glomerulosclerosis occurring in adulthood [PDF]
To the Editor: Podocin is a key component of the podocyte slit diaphragm. Mutations of podocin cause recessive steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome that evolves to renal failure in early childhood [1]. They have also been found in children with sporadic nephrotic syndrome [2] and variable outcome including patients with steroid and cyclosporine ...

The early asymptomatic stage of glomerular injury is a diagnostic challenge in the course of renal and extra-renal disease, e.g., heart insufficiency. It was found that podocin, a podocyte-specific protein present in the urine, may serve as a biomarker ...

C-terminal oligomerization of podocin mediates interallelic interactions
Interallelic interactions of membrane proteins are not taken into account while evaluating the pathogenicity of sequence variants in autosomal recessive disorders. Podocin, a membrane-anchored component of the slit diaphragm, is encoded by NPHS2, the major gene mutated in hereditary podocytopathies.

Podocin Localizes in the Kidney to the Slit Diaphragm Area [PDF]
We recently cloned a novel gene, NPHS2, involved in autosomal recessive steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome. This gene encodes a novel podocyte protein, podocin. Given its similarity with the stomatin family proteins, podocin is predicted to be an integral membrane protein with a single membrane domain forming a hairpin-like structure placing both N ...
