Assessment of podocyte detachment as a pivotal step in the development of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis

Journal of the Egyptian National Cancer Institute
Background Podocytopenia refers to a decrease in the number of podocytes. When podocytes are injured, they may detach leading to podocytopenia, which represents a critical step in the development of podocytopathy and subsequently deterioration of renal ...

Baseline and 4‐year associations between prediabetes and kidney impairment: Insights from the ILERVAS cohort

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Prediabetes is a prevalent condition associated with increased cardiovascular and renal risk. However, the long‐term impact of haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) within the range defined as prediabetes on kidney function remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the association between prediabetes and renal function (estimated glomerular ...

Isolation of Podocyte Cell Fractions From Mouse Kidney Using Magnetic Activated Cell Sorting (MACS)

Bio-Protocol
Glomerular diseases characterized by injury to post-mitotic epithelial cells called podocytes are a leading cause of chronic kidney disease. Yet, isolating podocytes from the kidney for transcriptomic, proteomic, and metabolomic studies has been a major ...

Whole Blood Transcriptomic Analysis of Sickle Cell Trait

European Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sickle cell trait (SCT) is the heterozygous carrier state for the HBB missense variant which causes sickle cell disease (SCD). SCT has been associated with increased risk of venous thromboembolism and chronic kidney disease as well as alterations in clinical laboratory parameters. To investigate differential gene expression in SCT, we used RNA

An update on the landscape of collagen bioactive fragments

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The remodeling of the extracellular matrix releases collagen bioactive fragments, which exert molecular functions and regulate numerous biological processes via several signaling pathways. Here, we summarize the latest findings describing the roles of major bioactive fragments from collagens I, IV, VI, and XVIII in various physiological and ...

GCN2 in proteostasis: structural logic, signalling networks and disease

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Threats to protein synthesis activate the kinase GCN2, initiating the integrated stress response (ISR). GCN2 is triggered by stalled ribosomes and uncharged tRNAs, which accumulate when amino acids are scarce. The ISR adjusts cellular physiology by promoting redox balance, protein quality control, and mitochondrial optimisation.

Mechanisms of hesperetin in alleviating diabetic nephropathy: Network pharmacology, molecular docking, and experimental validation

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
Hesperetin increases cell viability and reduces cell apoptosis, ferroptosis, release of inflammatory cytokines, and oxidative stress of human kidney tubular cells via repressing IGF1R expression. ABSTRACT Background Diabetic nephropathy (DN) accounts for approximately 50% of chronic kidney disease cases.

Association of glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonist use with clinical outcomes in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and type 2 diabetes

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
This TriNetX (US, 2016–2023) study compared clinical outcomes in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and type 2 diabetes treated with GLP‐1 receptor agonists vs DPP4 inhibitors. ABSTRACT Objectives To evaluate whether glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1 RAs) are associated with improved survival and renal outcomes in patients with ...
