Fibroblast‐specific palladin drives kidney fibrosis via MRTF–SRF signaling
Abstract Fibrosis is a common end‐stage pathway of progressive chronic kidney diseases. Previously we demonstrated that myocardin‐related transcription factor (MRTF)–serum response factor (SRF) signaling drives the expression of fibrosis‐related molecules through actin cytoskeleton dynamics in renal fibroblasts.

Activation of podocyte Notch mediates early Wt1 glomerulopathy [PDF]
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 ...

We investigated two models of mitochondrial dysfunction in podocytes, using two cell culture models: podocytes isolated from mice with Oma1 deletion (Oma1del) and mouse podocytes modified with an inducible knockdown of PHB2 (Phb2kd). OMA1 deficiency induced a glycolytic shift, enhanced glutamine anaplerosis, and sustained energy homeostasis after ...

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

Microphysiological Systems for Comorbidity Studies: Chronic Kidney Disease and Osteoarthritis
This review highlights the potential of organ‐on‐a‐chip systems for studying comorbidities, using chronic kidney disease (CKD) and osteoarthritis (OA) as examples. It summarizes recent advances in kidney‐on‐a‐chip and joint‐on‐a‐chip models and discusses their current and potential application in investigating CKD, OA, and CKD‐OA comorbidity, aiming to

A simplified, co‐culture‐free protocol for kidney organoids that generate segmented nephrons, including collecting ducts, has been developed. Early low‐dose RA with FGF9 induces balanced anterior–posterior IM patterning and dual UE/MM lineage commitment. BMP7 enhances nephron progenitor maturation.
