Here, we report using novel conditionally immortalized human podocytes in vitro and human ... Conditionally immortalized human glomerular endothelial cells do not respond to insulin, suggesting ...

Are you ignoring the early signs of kidney disease in diabetes? As diabetic kidney disease is on the rise, here’s what ...

The glomerular filtration barrier, from the blood to the urinary space, consists of endothelial cells, a basement membrane and specialized epithelial cells called podocytes. Endothelial cells have ...

ANG II in turn suppresses nephrin and induces TGF-β type II receptor expression in podocytes, perhaps intensifying the paracrine effects of TGF-β derived from the mesangium or glomerular ...

Filtration is dependent on the unique structure of the capillary wall comprising layers of two key cells types, glomerular endothelial cells (GEnC) and podocytes, separated by a specialised basement ...

It examines the impact of mTOR on podocytes, glomerular mesangial cells, renal tubular epithelial cells, and glomerular endothelial cells—each playing a crucial role in kidney function.

is a progressive disease characterized by damage to the glomerular filtration barrier (GFB), the loss of larger and essential proteins from the blood into the urine (proteinuria), causing considerable ...
