Abstract excerpt

Nephrin is a major component of the glomerular filtration barrier. Mutations in the nephrin gene (NPHS1) are responsible for congenital nephrotic syndrome of the Finnish type (NPHS1). Nephrin was at first thought to be podocyte specific, but recent studies have suggested that nephrin is also expressed in nonrenal tissues such as pancreas and CNS. We studied the expression of nephrin in human and porcine tissues...
