Myo1e knockout in the adult podocytes leads to proteinuria but has less severe consequences for kidney function than Myo1e loss during renal development
2022-03-04
Abstract excerpt
Myosin 1e (Myo1e) is expressed in specialized epithelial cells in the kidney (podocytes) and plays an important role in renal filtration. Knockout of Myo1e in mice and mutations in the MYO1E gene in humans cause proteinuria and disrupt the ultrastructure of glomeruli, the initial segments of renal nephrons that are responsible for selective excretion of waste products without the loss of proteins from the bloodst...
