Abstract:
As constructive cells of the glomerular filtration barrier, podocytes plays an essential role in the maintenance of the glomerular blood filtration, and also in the prevention of protein loose from blood. Many factors cause podocyte injury, and consequently contribute to the onset and progression of glomerular lesions. This review focuses on relationship between podocyte injury and glomerular disease.
