Podocytes are highly specialized cells of the kidney glomerulus that wrap around capillaries and that neighbor cells of the Bowman’s capsule. When it comes to glomerular filtration, podocytes play an active role in preventing plasma proteins from entering the urinary ultrafiltrate by providing a barrier comprising filtration slits between foot ...

Morin Alleviates Fructose-Driven Disturbance of Podocyte Mitochondrial Energy Metabolism by Inhibiting Adenosine 5′-Monophosphate Deaminase Activity to Improve Glomerular Injury [PDF]
Background/Objectives: High fructose consumption is a significant risk factor for glomerular podocyte injury. This study aimed to identify the underlying mechanism of fructose-induced podocyte injury and explore the protective effect of the natural ...

Research Progress on Mechanism of Podocyte Depletion in Diabetic Nephropathy
Diabetic nephropathy (DN) together with glomerular hyperfiltration has been implicated in the development of diabetic microangiopathy in the initial stage of diabetic diseases.

FGF4-FGFR1 signaling promotes podocyte survival and glomerular function to ameliorate diabetic kidney disease in male mice [PDF]
Podocyte injury is central to diabetic kidney disease (DKD) pathogenesis, however, the mechanisms underlying podocyte loss remain unclear. Emerging evidence underscores the involvement of fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) in renal pathophysiology. Here we

Age-related GSK3β overexpression drives podocyte senescence and glomerular aging
As life expectancy continues to increase, clinicians are challenged by age-related renal impairment that involves podocyte senescence and glomerulosclerosis.

Podocyte Injury Damages Other Podocytes [PDF]
Loss of podocytes promotes glomerulosclerosis, but whether this results from a continued primary insult or a secondary mechanism triggered by the initial loss of podocytes is unknown. We generated chimeric mice in which only a subpopulation of podocytes expressed hCD25, which is the receptor for the immunotoxin LMB2.
