| Abstract | OBJECTIVE: To investigate the function of nephrin in podocytes and its relation to proteinuria in kidney diseases, and to study more clearly theoretical basis for the molecular mechanism of losartan anti-proteinuria and the special beneficial effects of losartan on podocyte injury. METHODS: Experiment set up control, Ang II and losartan group. Cell morphology was observed perturbation, and using image processing software to analyze the cell body of cell morphology and size of the difference after 8 h, 24 h and 48 h. Detecting nephrin mRNA and protein expression changes by real time PCR (RT-PCR) and western blotting at different time points. RESULTS: Podocyte cell bodies were significantly reduced after Ang II injury (p < 0.01), losartan directly reduces the rate of apoptotic podocytes induced by Ang. Apoptotic podocytes may related to the decrease of nephrin mRNA and protein expressions, losartan reduced the apoptosis and proteinuria by declining nephrin mRNA and protein expressions. CONCLUSION: Ang II induced podocyte injury caused abnormal expression and distribution of nephrin in podocytes, losartan maybe maintain the stability of nephrin expression and the integrity of hole diaphragm (SD) structure and function by blocking the signal path, playing a important role in protection mechanisms of anti-proteinuria. Our findings provide some possible clues for further exploring the pharmacological targets to the proteinuria. These novel findings provide new insights into the beneficial effects of losartan on podocytes directly. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
