Glomerular endothelial derived vesicles mediate podocyte dysfunction: A potential role for miRNA.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
MicroRNAs (miRNA) are shown to be involved in the progression of several types of kidney diseases. Podocytes maintain the integrity of the glomerular basement membrane.

C1-Ten is a PTPase of nephrin, regulating podocyte hypertrophy through mTORC1 activation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Hypertrophy is a prominent feature of damaged podocytes in diabetic kidney disease (DKD). mTORC1 hyperactivation leads to podocyte hypertrophy, but the detailed mechanism of how mTORC1 activation occurs under pathological conditions is not completely ...

Autophagy Protects against Palmitic Acid-Induced Apoptosis in Podocytes in vitro

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Autophagy is a highly conserved degradation process that is involved in the clearance of proteins and damaged organelles to maintain intracellular homeostasis and cell integrity.

Mitochondrial dynamics in autoimmune diseases

open access: yesRheumatology &Autoimmunity, EarlyView.
Roles of mitochondrial dynamic imbalance in autoimmune diseases. The imbalance of mitochondrial fusion and fission is involved in the occurrence and development of autoimmune diseases, including systemic lupus erythematosus, Sjogren's syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, myasthenia gravis, type 1 diabetes, psoriasis, and autoimmune ...

Apelin involved in progression of diabetic nephropathy by inhibiting autophagy in podocytes

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2017
Podocyte autophagy dysfunction has been reported to be responsible for the progression of diabetic nephropathy (DN), however, the factors contributed to autophagy dysfunction in type 2 diabetes are not fully understood.

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

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
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.

The integrin repertoire drives YAP-dependent epithelial:stromal interactions during injury of the kidney glomerulus

open access: yesNature Communications
The kidney glomerulus is a filtration barrier in which capillary loop architecture depends on epithelial-stromal interactions between podocytes and mesangial cells.

Activation of podocyte Notch mediates early Wt1 glomerulopathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The Wilms' tumor suppressor gene, WT1, encodes a zinc finger protein that regulates podocyte development and is highly expressed in mature podocytes. Mutations in the WT1 gene are associated with the development of renal failure due to the formation of ...

Absence of miR-146a in Podocytes Increases Risk of Diabetic Glomerulopathy via Up-regulation of ErbB4 and Notch-1*

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2016
Podocyte injury is an early event in diabetic kidney disease and is a hallmark of glomerulopathy. MicroRNA-146a (miR-146a) is highly expressed in many cell types under homeostatic conditions, and plays an important anti-inflammatory role in myeloid cells.

Podocyte Differentiation and Glomerulogenesis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2003
This review will concentrate on the assembly of the glomerulus and the differentiation of the podocyte during that process. The differentiation of the vascular component of the glomerulus will not be emphasized, as it has been the subject of several recent reviews ([1][1]–[4][2]), except ...
