متن کاملPodocyte 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 کاملThe clinical, pathological, and genetic features of familial isolated pituitary adenomas.
