  1. A glomerulus-on-a-chip to recapitulate the human glomerular …

    In this work we model the glomerular filtration barrier, the structure responsible for filtering the blood and preventing the loss of proteins, using human podocytes and glomerular endothelial cells seeded into micr…

  2. The glomerular filtration barrier: a structural target for ...

    Two novel candidate therapies in clinical development to treat diseases of the glomerular filtration barrier (GFB) include antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) against …

  3. The proteasome modulates endocytosis specifically in glomerular …

    Immunoglobulin accumulation at the filtration barrier is pathognomonic for glomerular injury. The mechanisms that regulate filter permeability are unknown. Here, we …

  4. Modelling Renal Filtration and Reabsorption Processes in a Human ...

    The significance of the tri-culture is verified by the glomerular cells filtering human serum albumin, acting as filtration barrier both biologically and mechanically. In this work, the …

  5. 25.4 Physiology of Urine Formation: Glomerular Filtration

    Glomerular Filtration. Filtrate is produced by the glomerulus when the hydrostatic pressure produced by the heart pushes water and solutes through the filtration membrane. …

  6. The Glomerulus: The Sphere of Influence : Clinical Journal of the ...

    This discussion focuses on the regulation of filtration at the level of a single, typical glomerulus, by which the precise hemodynamic control of glomerular filtration is best understood.

  7. A High-throughput method for measurement of glomerular …

    The measurement of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is the gold standard in kidney function assessment. Currently, investigators determine GFR by measuring the level of the …

  8. A kidney-specific fasting-mimicking diet induces podocyte ...

    Loss of podocytes, the cells that together with glomerular endothelial cells (GECs) form the glomerular filtration barrier, are central culprits of most progressive CKD (4–7). Some …

  9. The glomerular filtration barrier function: new concepts

    We investigate the potential impact of the electrical field on the passage of albumin across the glomerular filtration barrier. We review the mathematical heteroporous model including …
