Glomerular Endothelial Cell-Derived microRNA-192 Regulates Nephronectin Expression in Idiopathic Membranous Glomerulonephritis
29 Oct 2021
Abstract excerpt
Significance Statement MicroRNA-192-5p (miR-192-5p) is upregulated in the glomeruli and urine of patients with idiopathic membranous glomerulonephritis (iMGN). It derives from glomerular endothelial cells, is packed into exosomes, and decreases podocyte nephronectin (NPNT) in the glomerular basement membrane (GBM) by paracrine signaling. Patients with iMGN have reduced glomerular NPNT expression. Whole-body...
