Ultrastructural identification of developing proximal tubules based on three‐dimensional reconstruction [PDF]
Background The cellular mechanisms involved in the development of proximal tubules are not only associated with morphogenesis in fetal life, but also with restoration of damaged tubules in adulthood.

Light Chain Restriction in Proximal Tubules—Implications for Light Chain Proximal Tubulopathy [PDF]
Monoclonal gammopathy (MG) causes various nephropathies, which may suffice for cytoreductive therapy even in the absence of diagnostic criteria for multiple myeloma or B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

CaOx crystal nuclei are formed in rat outer cortex proximal tubules by a potential fibrinogen-dependent mechanism. [PDF]
Calcium oxalate (CaOx) stones are prevalent in urinary tract stone disease. While their formation can be induced in rats by administering ethylene glycol and vitamin D, the initial nucleation and formation processes are unclear.

Tubulointerstitial injury and proximal tubule albumin transport in early diabetic nephropathy induced by type 1 diabetes mellitus [PDF]
A decrease in the tubular expression of albumin endocytic transporters megalin and cubilin has been associated with diabetic nephropathy (DN), but there are no comprehensive studies to date relating early tubulointerstitial injury and the effect of the ...

Age-related TFEB downregulation in proximal tubules causes systemic metabolic disorders and occasional apolipoprotein A4–related amyloidosis [PDF]
With the aging of society, the incidence of chronic kidney disease (CKD), a common cause of death, has been increasing. Transcription factor EB (TFEB), the master transcriptional regulator of the autophagy/lysosomal pathway, is regarded as a promising ...

mutation: a benign genetic cause of proteinuria? [PDF]
Proteinuria is an important risk factor for renal and cardiovascular disease. It is associated with a risk for glomerulonephritis, chronic kidney disease, and end-stage renal disease.

Generation and characterization of an inducible renal proximal tubule-specific CreERT2 mouse
Protein reabsorption in renal proximal tubules is essential for maintaining nutrient homeostasis. Renal proximal tubule-specific gene knockout is a powerful method to assess the function of genes involved in renal proximal tubule protein reabsorption ...

Light chain proximal tubulopathy with lambda restriction presenting as acute kidney injury [PDF]
Monoclonal gammopathies can produce a variety of glomerular, tubular, vascular and interstitial lesions. The spectrums of renal lesions produced by these monoclonal gammopathies include AL/AH amyloidosis, light chain cast nephropathy or myeloma kidney ...
