1 9314539 Synaptopodin is an actin-associated protein of differentiated podocytes that also occurs as part of the actin cytoskeleton of postsynaptic densities (PSD) and associated dendritic spines in a subpopulation of exclusively telencephalic synapses.
2 9314539 In particular, synaptopodin does not contain functional domains found in receptor-clustering PSD proteins.
3 9314539 Synaptopodin is an actin-associated protein of differentiated podocytes that also occurs as part of the actin cytoskeleton of postsynaptic densities (PSD) and associated dendritic spines in a subpopulation of exclusively telencephalic synapses.
4 9314539 In particular, synaptopodin does not contain functional domains found in receptor-clustering PSD proteins.
5 9811343 To determine the relationship between cell cycle regulation and differentiation, the spatiotemporal expression of cyclin A, cyclin B1, cyclin D1, the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors (CKIs) p27 and p57, and markers of differentiating podocytes in developing human kidneys was investigated by immunohistochemistry.
6 9811343 In S-shaped body stage, Ki-67, a cell proliferation marker that labels the G1/S/G2/M phase, was expressed in the majority (more than 80%) of presumptive podocytes, along with cyclin A (approximately 20% of the Ki-67-positive cells) and cyclin B1 (less than 5% of Ki-67-positive cells) expression.
7 9811343 Among these cells), cyclin D1 and CKIs were markedly down-regulated.
8 9811343 At the capillary-loop stage, by contrast, CKIs and cyclin D1 were intensely positive in podocytes, whereas no Ki-67, cyclin B1, or cyclin A expression was seen.
9 9811343 Moreover, double-immunolabeling and serial-section analysis provided evidence that CKIs and markers specific for differentiating podocytes, namely PHM-5 (podocalyxin-like protein in humans), synaptopodin (a foot process-related protein), and C3b receptor, were co-expressed at the capillary-loop stage.
10 9811343 Furthermore, bcl-2 (an apoptosis inhibitory protein) showed a reciprocal expression pattern to that of CKI.
11 10879738 All of the cellular lesions expressed cytokeratin, frequently with Ki-67 (82.4%) and less frequently with cyclin A (17.7%), but were invariably negative for podocyte markers (PHM-5 and synaptopodin) and CKIs (p27kip1 and p57kip2).
12 10879738 In conclusion, proliferation of PEC, sustained by repression of CKIs in nature and simultaneous activation of cyclin A, is the actual molecular background to the cellular lesions in FGS.
13 11158216 Immunohistochemistry and confocal laser microscopy carried out on kidneys with FSGS relapse disclosed several phenomena. (1) Some podocytes that expressed podocalyxin, synaptopodin, and glomerular epithelial protein-1 were detached from the tuft and were free in the urinary space. (2) In the cellular variant, most podocytes had lost podocyte-specific epitopes (podocalyxin, synaptopodin, glomerular epithelial protein-1, Wilm's tumor protein-1, complement receptor-1, and vimentin).
14 11158216 In the scar variant, these podocyte markers were absent from cobblestone-like epithelial cells and from pseudotubules. (3) Podocytes had acquired expression of various cytokeratins (CK; identified by the AE1/AE3, C2562, CK22, and AEL-KS2 monoclonal antibodies) that were not found in the podocytes of control glomeruli.
15 11158216 Parietal epithelial cells expressed AE1/AE3 CK that were faintly, if ever, found on the parietal epithelial cells of normal glomeruli. (4) Numerous cells located at the periphery of the tuft or free in Bowman's space and within tubular lumens expressed macrophagic epitopes (identified by PGM1 [CD68], HAM56, and 25F9 monoclonal antibodies).
16 11158216 These macrophage-like cells expressed the activation epitopes HLA-DR and CD16. (5) A number of these cells coexpressed podocalyxin + AE1/AE3 CK, podocalyxin + CD68, and CD68 + AE1/AE3.
17 11456410 The arborized cells from decapsulated glomeruli showed intense staining for a podocyte-specific marker, podocalyxin, but no staining for markers specific to PECs (pan cadherin), mesangial cells (Thy-1) or endothelial cells (von Willebrand factor, RECA-1), indicating their podocyte origin.
18 11456410 Thus, the cell population from decapsulated glomeruli is distinctly different from that from encapsulated glomeruli, supporting the idea that polygonal cells originate from PECs, although immunocytochemical markers specific to podocytes in vivo such as WT1, synaptopodin, HSP27 and P-31 antigen were expressed significantly in the polygonal cells.
19 11696420 Myopodin, a synaptopodin homologue, is frequently deleted in invasive prostate cancers.
20 11696420 Sequence analysis indicates that myopodin shares significant homology with synaptopodin, a protein closely associated with podocyte and neuron differentiation.
