A novel podocyte gene, semaphorin 3G, protects glomerular podocyte from lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammation.
Kidney diseases including diabetic nephropathy have become huge medical problems, although its precise mechanisms are still far from understood. In order to increase our knowledge about the patho-physiology of kidney, we have previously identified >300 kidney glomerulus-enriched transcripts through large-scale sequencing and microarray profiling of the mouse glomerular transcriptome. One of the...

Moreover, reductions in glomerular and podocyte SULF2 expression also corresponded with injury, while glucocorticoid treatment restored SULF2 in podocytes. Our data suggest that SULF2 plays an important role in glucocorticoid response in NS.
متن کاملHomodimerization and heterodimerization of the glomerular podocyte proteins nephrin and NEPH1.
Nephrin and NEPH1, the gene products of NPHS1 and NEPH1, are podocyte membrane proteins of the Ig superfamily. Similar to the nephrin knockout, mice lacking NEPH1 show severe proteinuria leading to perinatal death. To identify the ligand of NEPH1, the extracellular domain of NEPH1 was fused to human IgG. This NEPH1-Ig fusion protein labeled the glomerular capillary wall of mouse kidneys in a st...
متن کاملExpression of nephrin in acquired human glomerular disease.
BACKGROUND Nephrin is a recently identified protein, which is synthesized in the podocytes and localized in the slit diaphragm area. Nephrin is a cell adhesion molecule of the immunoglobulin superfamily, and presumably is a part of the zipper-like structure of the slit membrane. As the mutation of the gene coding nephrin induces congenital nephrotic syndrome of Finnish type, which is a prototyp...
متن کاملLentiviral Mediated Expression of Soluble Neuropilin 1 Inhibits Semaphorin 3A-mediated Collapse Activity in Vitro
Introduction: Semaphorin 3A (Sema 3A) is a secreted protein, which plays an integral part in developing the nervous system. It has collapse activity on the growth cone of dorsal root ganglia. After the development of the nervous system, Sema 3A expression decreases. Neuropilin 1 is a membrane receptor of Sema 3A. When semaphorin binds to neuropilin 1, the recruitment of oligodendrocyte precurso...
