Recent Advances in Traditional Chinese Medicine for Treatment of Podocyte Injury
Podocyte is also called glomerular epithelial cell, which has been considered as the final gatekeeper of glomerular filtration barrier (GFB). As a major contributor to proteinuria, podocyte injury underlies a variety of glomerular diseases and becomes ...

Possible therapeutic repositioning of valproic acid: From epileptic seizures to acute kidney injury
Valproic acid, an anticonvulsant, may be repositioned to prevent acute kidney injury due to ischemia followed by reperfusion. It preserves renal functions, electrolyte homeostasis and active sodium transport in kidney tubules, and blocks the onset of hypertension.

Reduction of Proteinuria through Podocyte Alkalinization [PDF]
Podocytes are highly differentiated cells and critical elements for the filtration barrier of the kidney. Loss of their foot process (FP) architecture (FP effacement) results in urinary protein loss.

Effect of N-acetyl-seryl-aspartyl-lysyl-proline on high glucose-induced podocyte injury
Objective To investigate the effect of N-acetyl-seryl-aspartyl-lysyl-proline(AcSDKP) on podocyte injury induced by high glucose and its possible mechanisms.Methods The conditionally immortalized mouse podocytes were treated by high glucose with or ...

Background The mechanism of podocyte apoptosis is not fully understood. In addition, the role of the inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate receptor (IP3R)/glucose-regulated protein 75 (Grp75)/voltage-dependent anion channel 1 (VDAC1)/mitochondrial calcium ...

The function of endocytosis in podocytes [PDF]
In this review, we discuss the role of endocytosis, a fundamental process internalizing molecules from the plasma membrane, and its critical importance in podocyte biology.Endocytic clathrin and nonclathrin-coated pits have been visualized in podocytes using electron microscopy, but the functional biological relevance has not been well defined.

Epigenetic Regulation in the Pathogenesis of Renal Inflammation: Insights and Therapeutic Potentials
ABSTRACT Renal inflammation is a common pathological process in various kidney diseases, often initiated by factors such as toxins, ischemia, or autoimmune reactions. This inflammatory response can result in structural damage and a rapid decline in renal function.

Comparison of two methods for measuring podocyte density. [PDF]
Panel A. Log podocyte density plotted versus Glepp1 area (%). The two methods correlate with R2 = 0.70. Panel B. Podocyte density x glomerular volume gives the podocyte number per tuft. This value also correlates well with Glepp1 area (R2 = 0.63).

GSK3β drives early diabetic tubulopathy via TFEB‐mediated mitochondrial dysfunction
Mitochondrial dysfunction, including mitochondrial biogenesis, mitophagy, dynamics and oxidative stress, occurs in the early stages of diabetic tubulopathy, which precede proteinuria and renal histological changes. GSK3β is a potential novel biomarker for the prediction of diabetic tubulopathy.

Podocyte evaluation at 3 months after uninephrectomy. [PDF]
(A) Immunofluorescence study of glomerular synaptopodin and WT1 in each group. (B) Average glomerular podocyte number (evaluated using the number of WT1-positive staining nuclei) in each group. No differences were noted among the groups.
