Research Abstract |
Transgelin has been revealed to express in injured glomerukar epithelial cells and interstitial cells of both rat and human. It is located in the area of foot process effacement and represents the podocyte injury in glomeruli. The expression is specific for renal cell injury. The extent of its positivity in glomerular or tubulointerstitial area is the determinant of the amount of proteinuria or the deterioration of creatinine clearance (Ccr), respectively. The mechanism of its expression largely depends on the signal transduction of TGFβ.
