Dexamethasone resisted podocyte injury
CD2AP and TRPC6, the key proteins of podocyte slit diaphragm (SD), together form a signal transduction complex by interacting with other SD molecules and also play an important role in maintaining SD structural and functional integrity. Data suggest that podocyte injury or SD structural damage will inevitably result in proteinuria.

Eluate derived by extracorporal antibody-based immunoadsorption elevates the cytosolic Ca2+ concentration in podocytes via B-2 kinin receptors [PDF]
Background/Aim: Patients with idiopathic focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) often develop a recurrence of the disease after kidney transplantation.

A rare case of renal thrombotic microangiopathy associated with Castleman’s disease [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Castleman’s disease (CD) is an uncommon, heterogeneous lympho-proliferative disorder leading to high circulating levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF).

Inducible ATF3–NFAT axis aggravates podocyte injury [PDF]
Podocyte injury and loss contribute to proteinuria, glomerulosclerosis, and eventually kidney failure. Activating transcription factor 3 (ATF3) is a stress inducible transcription factor that is transiently expressed following stimulation. However, we show for the first time an induction of ATF3 in podocytes from patients with chronic kidney disease ...

Identification of novel molecular signatures of IgA nephropathy through an integrative -omics analysis [PDF]
IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is the most prevalent among primary glomerular diseases worldwide. Although our understanding of IgAN has advanced significantly, its underlying biology and potential drug targets are still unexplored.

Btg2 Promotes Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis via Smad3‐Dependent Podocyte‐Mesenchymal Transition
Podocyte injury plays a critical role in the progression of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS). Here, it is reported that B‐cell translocation gene 2 (Btg2) promotes Adriamycin (ADR)‐induced FSGS via Smad3‐dependent podocyte‐mesenchymal transition.

Effects of Podocyte Injury on Glomerular Development [PDF]
To study the effects of podocyte injury on glomerular maturation and underlying mechanisms of such effects, puromycin aminonucleoside (PAN) was given to neonatal mice at 1 d post partum (1 dpp). Mice with PAN injection had smaller kidney weight (KW) and body weight (BW) at all times and smaller KW/BW at 4, 8, and 12 dpp versus normal saline (NS ...

Research advances on the role of ubiquitin proteasome in podocyte injury of diabetic kidney disease
Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a disease of abnormal renal structure and function due to long-term hyperglycemia. Podocyte injury is a major cause of renal inflammation, glomerular filtration barrier injury and renal fibrosis.
