Maternal protein deficiency alters primary cilia length in renal tubular and impairs kidney development in fetal rat
6 Jul 2023
Abstract excerpt
Introduction Intrauterine malnutrition impairs embryo kidney development and leads to kidney disease and hypertension in adulthood, yet the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Methods With a maternal protein restriction (MPR) rat model, we investigated the critical ciliogenesis factors and β-catenin pathway in FGR fetal kidneys and analyzed the impact of aberrant primary cilia on renal tubular epithelium....
