miR-204-5p Preserves Kidney Function by Protecting Nephrin from Enzymatic Degradation in a Nephrotoxic Serum Animal Model
2025-01-30
Abstract excerpt
Nephrin is an essential constituent of the slit-diaphragm of the kidney filtering unit. Loss of nephrin expression leads to protein leakage into the urine, one of the hallmarks of kidney damage. Autoantibodies against nephrin have been reported in patients with minimal change disease and recurrent focal segmental glomerulosclerosis. Understanding the mechanism of nephrin loss may help improve or lead to the develo...
