The emerging role of cellular senescence in renal diseases [PDF]
, 2020 Cellular senescence represents the state of irreversible cell cycle arrest during cell division. Cellular senescence not only plays a role in diverse biological events such as embryogenesis, tissue regeneration and repair, ageing and tumour occurrence ...

Podocyte injury and repair mechanisms
Current Opinion in Nephrology and Hypertension, 2015 Podocytes are the main gatekeeper of protein filtration in the glomerulus. When podocytes work less efficiently, this translates to the appearance of proteins in the urine, a condition that, if not promptly treated, leads to progression of glomerular damage and renal failure.Novel gene mutations have been uncovered in patients with nephrotic syndrome ...

Twisted gastrulation, a BMP antagonist, exacerbates podocyte injury.
PLoS ONE, 2014 Podocyte injury is the first step in the progression of glomerulosclerosis. Previous studies have demonstrated the beneficial effect of bone morphogenetic protein 7 (Bmp7) in podocyte injury and the existence of native Bmp signaling in podocytes.

Long noncoding RNA MEG3 suppresses podocyte injury in diabetic nephropathy by inactivating Wnt/β-catenin signaling [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 Background Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is one of the principal complications of diabetes and podocyte injury plays an important role in the DN pathogenesis. Wnt/β-catenin signaling overactivation confers podocyte injury and promotes multiple types of renal

Chemical composition, antioxidant and alpha-Glucosidase-Inhibiting activities of the aqueous and hydroethanolic extracts of Vaccinium myrtillus Leaves [PDF]
, 2017 Vaccinium myrtillus (bilberry) leaf is traditionally used in southeastern Europe for the treatment of diabetes. In the present study, the ability of bilberry leaf extracts to inhibit carbohydrate-hydrolyzing enzymes and restore glutathione concentration ...

Redox signaling, Nox5 and vascular remodeling in hypertension [PDF]
, 2015 Purpose of review: Extensive data indicate a role for reactive oxygen species (ROS) and redox signaling in vascular damage in hypertension. However, molecular mechanisms underlying these processes remain unclear, but oxidative post-translational ...

Role of Podocyte Injury in Glomerulosclerosis [PDF]
, 2019 Finding new therapeutic targets of glomerulosclerosis treatment is an ongoing quest. Due to a living environment of various stresses and pathological stimuli, podocytes are prone to injuries; moreover, as a cell without proliferative potential, loss of podocytes is vital in the pathogenesis of glomerulosclerosis.

Molecular Mechanisms of Kidney Injury and Repair in Arterial Hypertension [PDF]
, 2019 The global burden of chronic kidney disease is rising. The etiologies, heterogeneous, and arterial hypertension, are key factors contributing to the development and progression of chronic kidney disease. Arterial hypertension is induced and maintained by
