Transcriptional Regulation in Podocytes [PDF]
Prolonged and progressive podocyte injury leads to extensive proteinuria, scarred glomeruli and a decline in renal function. When left untreated, it develops chronic kidney disease (CKD) which often has poor prognosis.

Summary: The cellular responses induced by mitochondrial dysfunction remain elusive. Intrigued by the lack of almost any glomerular phenotype in patients with profound renal ischemia, we comprehensively investigated the primary sources of energy of ...

Recent insights have defined the central role of podocytes both in rare genetic diseases and as a general determinant of the progression of human glomerular diseases. In a recent issue of Nature, Weavers et al.

In glomerular disease, podocytes and parietal epithelial cells (PECs) are shed in the urine. Therefore, urinary podocytes and PECs are noninvasive biomarkers of glomerular disease.

Free fatty acids cause podocytes dysfunction and inflammation
The mechanisms underlying obesity-related kidney disease are not well understood. Growing evidence suggests that free fatty acids (FFAs), a cause of oxidative stress, play an important role in obesity and its related complications.

The Wilms tumor suppressor gene WT1 is essential for early urogenital development: homozygous mutations in WT1 result in embryonic lethality due to a failure in the development of kidneys and gonads.

Unravelling the Role of PAX2 Mutation in Human Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis
No effective treatments are available for familial steroid-resistant Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), characterized by proteinuria due to ultrastructural abnormalities in glomerular podocytes. Here, we studied a private PAX2 mutation identified

Podocytes of PodoPalld129-/- mice show morphological abnormalities.
(A) In Richardson’s stained semithin sections of PodoPalld129-/- mice we have found podocytes with enlarged subpodocyte space compared with controls as illustrated in the higher magnifications. Scale bar represents 10 μm.

Réponses métaboliques distinctes des podocytes à l’exposition au palmitate et à l’oléate [PDF]
A key feature of obesity-related chronic kidney disease (CKD) is the alteration of the glomerulus, known as obesity-related glomerulopathy (ORG). In this condition, podocytes, highly specialized glomerular epithelial cells, are primary targets.
