What determines glomerular capillary permeability?
There have been exciting recent advances in our understanding of the structural and molecular biology of the glomerular slit diaphragm, as described in a report in this issue of the JCI. These findings, combined with data on the permeability of the basement membrane and evidence that the endothelium may be a more important barrier than often supposed, are allowing a clearer understanding to eme...

متن کاملIohexol plasma clearance for measuring glomerular filtration rate in clinical practice and research: a review. Part 2: Why to measure glomerular filtration rate with iohexol?
A reliable assessment of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is of paramount importance in clinical practice as well as epidemiological and clinical research settings. It is recommended by Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes guidelines in specific populations (anorectic, cirrhotic, obese, renal and non-renal transplant patients) where estimation equations are unreliable. Measured GFR is the ...
متن کامل[Structure and function of glomerular basement membrane].
The glomerular basement membrane (GBM) is thin extracellular matrices which separate the visceral epithelium of the glomerulus from the capillary endothelium and serves as a filter for blood molecules. GBMs are composed of type IV collagen, laminin, heparan sulfate proteoglycan, entactin/nidogen, fibronectin and other minor glycoproteins which are not characterized. Recent technological advance...
