Podocyte injury is an important cause of proteinuria. Angiopoietin-like protein 4 (Angptl4) is a secreted glycoprotein and has a role in proteinuria. However, the exact role of Angptl4 in podocyte injury and its upstream regulators has not been clarified.

Podocyte abnormalities are common mechanism driving the progression of glomerular diseases, which account for most chronic kidney diseases (CKDs). However, the role of podocyte in the mechanism of high-risk long-term CKD caused by prematurity has not ...

Recent insights have defined the central role of podocytes both in rare genetic diseases and as a general determinant of the progression of human glomerular diseases. In a recent issue of Nature, Weavers et al. described a podocyte-like cell type in Drosophila, the nephrocyte, that closely resembles mammalian podocytes, including the nephrin-based slit

Endothelin and the podocyte [PDF]
In the past decade, research has advanced our understanding how endothelin contributes to proteinuria and glomerulosclerosis. Data from pre-clinical and clinical studies now provide evidence that proteinuric diseases such as focal segmental glomerulosclerosis and diabetic nephropathy as well as hypertension nephropathy are sensitive to treatment with ...

PFKFB3 downregulation aggravates Angiotensin II-induced podocyte detachment
Podocytes play a critical role in maintaining normal glomerular filtration, and podocyte loss from the glomerular basement membrane (GBM) initiates and worsens chronic kidney disease (CKD).

Background: Podocyte injury contributes to progressive glomerulosclerosis. Previously, we demonstrated the important role of the NLR family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome in mediating the podocyte injury induced by aldosterone.

Background: Podocyte injury has a direct causal relationship with proteinuria and glomerulosclerosis and, on a chronic level, can lead to irreversible disease progression. Podocyte injury plays a critically decisive role in the development of proteinuric

Podocyte injury damages podocytes in chimeric organoids. [PDF]
Abstract We have previously shown that injury to a subset of podocytes can trigger secondary damage in neighboring podocytes, but whether this phenomenon depends on direct intercellular interaction is unknown. To address this, kidney organoids were generated from nephron progenitor cells of two mouse lines: one expressing a receptor for a ...

Semaphorin3A-Inhibitor Ameliorates Doxorubicin-Induced Podocyte Injury [PDF]
Podocyte injury is an independent risk factor for the progression of renal diseases. Semaphorin3A (SEMA3A), expressed in podocytes and tubular cells in the mammalian adult kidneys, has been reported to regulate diverse biological functions and be ...
