mTOR blockade prevents progressive proteinuria but induces hyperglycaemia in obese Dahl salt‐sensitive rats before puberty

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Previous studies have demonstrated that mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) activity is significantly increased in the kidneys of Dahl salt‐sensitive (SS) rats during the development of renal injury. Therefore, in the present study we examined whether blockade of mTOR with rapamycin inhibits renal injury in Dahl salt‐sensitive leptin receptor

TREM2+ macrophages accumulate in childhood IgA nephropathy and soluble TREM2 represents a reliable non‐invasive biomarker

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is a common type of primary glomerulonephritis in children. The pathogenesis of childhood IgAN remains unclear, and there is a lack of effective non‐invasive biomarkers for this disease. Single‐cell RNA sequencing was performed in children with IgAN to delineate cellular and molecular compositions, and subcluster ...

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 ...

Sodium thiosulfate treatment rescues hyperglycaemia‐induced pronephros damage in zebrafish by upregulating nitric oxide signalling

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Sodium thiosulfate (STS) rescues the pronephros phenotype of pdx1 morphants through compensatory upregulation of nitric oxide (NO) metabolism. Zebrafish larvae injected with a control morpholino show the typical pronephros structure at 48 h post‐fertilization (hpf) with and without STS treatment.

Urinary exosomes aggravate diabetic kidney disease by inducing podocyte ferroptosis via the miR‐217/SIRT1/Nrf2 pathway

Journal of Cell Communication and Signaling, Volume 20, Issue 2, June 2026.
These findings indicate that urinary exosomal miR‐217 promotes podocyte ferroptosis and DKD progression via suppression of the SIRT1/Nrf2 pathway, suggesting a potential therapeutic target for DKD. Abstract Urinary exosomal microRNAs (miRNAs) mediate intercellular communication in diabetic kidney disease (DKD), a leading contributor to end‐stage renal ...

Beyond Preeclampsia: Focal and Segmental Glomerulosclerosis Presenting as Nephrotic‐Range Proteinuria During Pregnancy, A Clinical Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
Nephrotic‐range proteinuria during pregnancy is not always preeclampsia. This case illustrates a steroid‐responsive tip‐variant podocytopathy with normal angiogenic biomarkers (sFlt‐1/PlGF), supporting a non‐placental origin. Renal biopsy confirmed the diagnosis, while concurrent CMV infection may have acted as a potential immunologic trigger ...

PLA2R‐Positive Membranous Nephropathy and AA Amyloidosis in an Ethiopian Patient With Chronic Hepatitis B: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The coexistence of primary phospholipase A2 receptor positive membranous nephropathy and AA amyloidosis in a patient with chronic hepatitis B is an exceedingly rare triad presenting a profound diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. A 38‐year‐old Ethiopian man with nephrotic syndrome and chronic hepatitis B had dual pathology on renal biopsy ...

Preterm Birth Increases Susceptibility to Hyperglycemia‐Induced Kidney Injury With Sex‐Specific Differences in Structural and Molecular Responses

Endocrinology, Diabetes &Metabolism, Volume 9, Issue 3, May 2026.
Preterm mice were delivered at 19 dpc and rendered diabetic with STZ at 6 weeks; kidneys were analysed at 18 weeks. PT‐D females showed increased atubular glomeruli, reduced proximal tubule fraction, higher albuminuria and BUN, and dysregulated fibrotic, vascular, mitochondrial, and Notch pathways.

Citrate‐Dependent Activation of Acetyl CoA Carboxylase Promotes Renal Lipid Accumulation in a Rat Model of Chronic Kidney Disease

Acta Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Abnormal accumulation of lipids within the kidney contributes to the progression of chronic kidney disease, but the underlying metabolic mechanisms remain unclear. Citrate is a central metabolite in cellular energy regulation and is frequently elevated in advanced kidney disease, yet its impact on renal lipid metabolism has not been

Sodium butyrate ameliorates renal tubular lipid accumulation through a protein phosphatase 2A/transcription factor EB axis in diabetic nephropathy

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 9, Page 1901-1919, May 2026.
Abstract Background and Purpose Extensive evidence indicates that lipid accumulation causes renal tubular injury, which further contributes to diabetic nephropathy (DN) progression. Short‐chain fatty acids (SCFAs) play an important role in the maintenance of cellular metabolic health.
