The tricellular junctional protein Ildr2 helps maintain glomerular podocyte architecture

2024-05-05

Abstract excerpt

Podocytes are highly specialized epithelial cells of the glomerular filtration barrier essential for maintaining proper kidney function. Their intricate cellular projections, called foot processes, wrap around the capillary endothelium, interdigitate, and connect to one another via slit diaphragm intercellular junctions to form a sieve-like barrier. Compromise to this unique podocyte architecture can lead to alter...
