Expression of Bcl-2 and Bax in mouse renal tubules during kidney development. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Bcl-2 and Bax play an important role in apoptosis regulation, as well as in cell adhesion and migration during kidney morphogenesis, which is structurally and functionally related to mitochondria.

Morphological description and histological structure of the Hedgehog Kidney (Hemiechinus auritus)
Tikrit Journal of Pure Science, 2023 This study was aimed to recognize the morphological description and histological structure of the kidney in hedgehog (Hemiechinus auritus). The morphological results showed that the kidney has a small bean shape and reddish brown color.

Stx2 Induces Differential Gene Expression and Disturbs Circadian Rhythm Genes in the Proximal Tubule
Toxins, 2022 Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) causes proximal tubular defects in the kidney. However, factors altered by Shiga toxin (Stx) within the proximal tubules are yet to be shown.

Heat-shock mediated overexpression of HNF1β mutations has differential effects on gene expression in the Xenopus pronephric kidney. [PDF]
, 2012 The transcription factor HNF1B, encoded by the TCF2 gene, plays an important role in the organogenesis of vertebrates. In humans, heterozygous mutations of HNF1B are associated with several diseases, such as pancreatic β-cell dysfunction leading to ...

TNF-α induces Claudin-1 expression in renal tubules in Alport mice
PLoS ONE, 2022 Claudin-1 (CL-1) is responsible for the paracellular barrier function of glomerular parietal epithelial cells (PEC) in kidneys, but the role of CL-1 in proximal tubules remains to be elucidated.

The Proximal Tubule and Albuminuria [PDF]
Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2014 Recent data highlight the role of the proximal tubule (PT) in reabsorbing, processing, and transcytosing urinary albumin from the glomerular filtrate. Innovative techniques and approaches have provided exciting insights into these processes, and numerous investigators have shown that selective PT cell defects lead to significant albuminuria, even ...
