A Compendium of Urinary Biomarkers Indicative of Glomerular Podocytopathy [PDF]
It is well known that glomerular podocyte injury and loss are present in numerous nephropathies and that the pathophysiologic consecution of disease hinges upon the fate of the podocyte.

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.

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.

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.

Erk5 is a mediator to TGFβ1-induced loss of phenotype and function in human podocytes. [PDF]
Background: Podocytes are highly specialized cells integral to the normal functioning kidney, however, in diabetic nephropathy injury occurs leading to a compromised phenotype and podocyte dysfunction which critically produces podocyte loss with ...

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.

Innate Immune Activity in Glomerular Podocytes [PDF]
Glomerular podocytes are specialized in structure and play an essential role in glomerular filtration. In addition, podocyte stress can initiate glomerular damage by inducing the injury of other glomerular cell types.

The MIF Receptor CD74 in Diabetic Podocyte Injury [PDF]
Although metabolic derangement plays a central role in diabetic nephropathy, a better understanding of secondary mediators of injury may lead to new therapeutic strategies. Expression of macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is increased in experimental diabetic nephropathy, and increased tubulointerstitial mRNA expression of its receptor, CD74,
