At the end of this year our open access journal Diagnostic Pathology does exist for about nine months. It has been designed to cover all aspects of diagnostic surgical pathology or tissue based diagnosis and related medical and biological disciplines. An editorial board of well – known experts assures the scientific quality of the submitted articles. In the beginning we had to learn how to hand...

Editorial: Podocyte Pathology and Nephropathy

Podocytes, glomerular visceral cells of epithelial origin, are the direct target of both immune and non-immune forms of injury in many diverse glomerular diseases. They do not typically proliferate in the mature kidney, which means that damaged cells are not replaced by new ones. It is now generally accepted that dysfunction or loss of these cells underlies progression of almost all glomerulopa...

Editorial: Golgi Pathology in Neurodegenerative Diseases

The Golgi apparatus is a central organelle that lies at the heart of the secretory pathway sustaining the delivery of proteins from their site of synthesis in the endoplasmic reticulum to their final destination, the extracellular medium, the plasma membrane, and the endo-lysosomal system. It ensures post-translational protein modifications such as glycosylation and proteolytic cleavage and pro...
