CIN85/RukL Is a Novel Binding Partner of Nephrin and Podocin and Mediates Slit Diaphragm Turnover in Podocytes
11 May 2010
Abstract excerpt
Podocyte damage is the basis of many glomerular diseases with ultrastructural changes and decreased expression of components of the slit diaphragm such as nephrin and podocin. Under physiological conditions it is likely that the slit diaphragm underlies permanent renewal processes to indemnify its stability in response to changes in filtration pressure. This would require constant reorganization of the podocyte...
