In 2017, recessive mutations in the human SPL gene <i>SGPL1</i> were identified as the cause of a novel inborn error of metabolism associated with nephrosis, endocrine defects, immunodeficiency, acanthosis, and neurological problems.
This longitudinal, prospective study analyzed the first-year profile of two serum renal biomarkers: creatinine (sCr) and cystatin C (sCyC); and six urinary renal biomarkers: neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1), transforming growth factor beta-1 (TGF-β1), retinol-binding protein (RBP), cystatin C (uCyC), and microalbuminuria (μALB) in a cohort of 37 infants with UTO divided into three subgroups: 14/37 with unilateral hydro(uretero)nephrosis, 13/37 with bilateral hydro(uretero)nephrosis, and 10/37 patients with lower urinary tract obstruction (LUTO), compared with 24 healthy infants matched by gestational age and birth weight.
The aim of the present study was to investigate whether modified Huangqi Chifeng decoction (MHCD) could be an effective treatment against Doxorubicin-induced nephrosis in rats and whether it regulates autophagy via the phosphoinositide-3 kinase/mammalian target of rapamycin (PI3K/mTOR) signaling pathway.

However, cystatin C, an extracellular inhibitor, was detected in podocytes after day 4, coincident with cathepsin L. Cystatin C levels were gradually reduced but sustained in many podocytes on day 28, while cystatin C was not detected in podocytes sustained cathepsin L. These results demonstrated that cathepsin L levels are not always accompanied by the levels of its inhibitors in podocytes of PAN nephrosis, suggesting a potential role of cathepsin L in podocyte injury, which is a critical process for the development and progression of tuft adhesion and sclerosis.

Furthermore, the rat puromycin aminonucleoside nephrosis model, previously suspected of undergoing SD-TJ transition, exhibited upregulated expression levels of claudin-1 mRNA and protein in podocytes.
Finally, nephrin mRNA was upregulated in the glomerulus at the early proteinuric stage of mouse nephrosis, which was associated with the reduction of WHSC1L1.

Olfm-1 and myocilin are markedly induced in podocytes during PAN nephrosis and appear to be involved in the processes that govern the reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton during podocyte repair.

CCL13 and HSPC159 mRNA expressions in PBMC from MCNS patients in nephrosis were significantly higher than those in nephrotic MN patients and healthy controls.
The results of quantitative RT-PCR showed that expressions of CCL13 and HSPC159 mRNA in nephrosis PBMC samples were higher than those in remission samples from all 24 MCNS patients examined, while these mRNA expression patterns were variable among 10 MN patients.
CCL13 and HSPC159 mRNA expressions in PBMC from MCNS patients in nephrosis were significantly higher than those in nephrotic MN patients and healthy controls.
