miR-200 family promotes podocyte differentiation through repression of RSAD2
Mature podocytes are highly differentiated cells with several characteristic phenotypic features that are involved in the glomerular filtration function. During kidney development, a series of changes of the morphological characteristics and cellular functions may happen in podocytes. The miR-200 family functions in various biological and pathological processes. But the underlying molecular mec...
متن کاملPodocyte differentiation and glomerulogenesis.
Glomerulogenesis Our understanding of the morphologic features of glomerular assembly, and indeed of the development of the nephron and the entire kidney, owe much to the work of Edith Potter and her colleague Vitoon Osathanondh during the mid 1960s. In a seminal series of articles that are today overly neglected, they provided much of understanding of how the kidney as an entire organ is assem...
متن کاملDifferentiation-Dependent KLF4 Expression Promotes Lytic Epstein-Barr Virus Infection in Epithelial Cells
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a human herpesvirus associated with B-cell and epithelial cell malignancies. EBV lytically infects normal differentiated oral epithelial cells, where it causes a tongue lesion known as oral hairy leukoplakia (OHL) in immunosuppressed patients. However, the cellular mechanism(s) that enable EBV to establish exclusively lytic infection in normal differentiated oral epi...
متن کاملDisruption of Myosin 1e promotes podocyte injury.
Myosin 1e (Myo1e) is one of two Src homology 3 domain-containing "long-tailed" type I myosins in vertebrates, whose functions in health and disease are incompletely understood. Here, we demonstrate that Myo1e localizes to podocytes in the kidney. We generated Myo1e-knockout mice and found that they exhibit proteinuria, signs of chronic renal injury, and kidney inflammation. At the ultrastructur...
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...
