Podocyte differentiation and hereditary proteinuria/nephrotic syndromes.
The study of familial nephrotic syndromes (NS) and the analysis of murine models of glomerular diseases resulted in major progresses in the knowledge of podocyte physiology and pathology. Numerous proteins participating in the composition of the slit diaphragm region have been identified. The importance of several of them (nephrin, podocin, CD2AP, and Neph1) in the maintenance of the glomerular...
متن کاملPodocyte-selective deletion of dicer induces proteinuria and glomerulosclerosis.
Dicer is an enzyme that generates microRNA (miRNA), which are small, noncoding RNA that function as important regulators of gene and protein expression. For exploration of the functional roles of miRNA in glomerular biology, Dicer was inactivated selectively in mouse podocytes. Mutant mice developed proteinuria 4 to 5 weeks after birth and died several weeks later, presumably from kidney failur...
متن کاملSynaptopodin Limits TRPC6 Podocyte Surface Expression and Attenuates Proteinuria.
Gain-of-function mutations of classic transient receptor potential channel 6 (TRPC6) were identified in familial FSGS, and increased expression of wild-type TRPC6 in glomeruli is observed in several human acquired proteinuric diseases. Synaptopodin, an actin binding protein that is important in maintaining podocyte function, is downregulated in various glomerular diseases. Here, we investigated...
متن کاملc-mip impairs podocyte proximal signaling and induces heavy proteinuria.
Idiopathic nephrotic syndrome comprises several podocyte diseases of unknown origin that affect the glomerular podocyte, which controls the permeability of the filtration barrier in the kidney to proteins. It is characterized by the daily loss of more than 3 g of protein in urine and the lack of inflammatory lesions or cell infiltration. We found that the abundance of c-mip (c-maf inducing prot...
متن کاملImpaired Podocyte Autophagy Exacerbates Proteinuria in Diabetic Nephropathy.
Overcoming refractory massive proteinuria remains a clinical and research issue in diabetic nephropathy. This study was designed to investigate the pathogenesis of massive proteinuria in diabetic nephropathy, with a special focus on podocyte autophagy, a system of intracellular degradation that maintains cell and organelle homeostasis, using human tissue samples and animal models. Insufficient ...
