Gene Expression Profiles of Podocyte-Associated Molecules as Diagnostic Markers in Acquired Proteinuric Diseases
1 Nov 2003
Abstract excerpt
For identifying potential diagnostic markers of proteinuric glomerulopathies, glomerular mRNA levels of molecules relevant for podocyte function (alpha-actinin-4, glomerular epithelial protein 1, Wilms tumor antigen 1, synaptopodin, dystroglycan, nephrin, podoplanin, and podocin) were determined by quantitative real-time RT-PCR from microdissected glomeruli. Biopsies from 83 patients with acquired proteinuric...
