Abstract excerpt
Podocytes are specialized epithelial cells with delicate interdigitating foot processes which cover the exterior basement membrane surface of the glomerular capillary. They are in part responsible for the extraordinary charge and size filtration characteristics of the glomerulus. To better understand disease processes affecting the glomerular filter, we searched for proteins with relative specificity to the...
