Exosomes, derived from multivesicular bodies (MVBs), contain proteins and genetic materials from their cell of origin and are secreted from various cells types, including kidney …
Diseases of the glomerular filter of the kidney are a leading cause of end‐stage renal failure. The kidney filter is localized within the renal glomeruli, small microvascular units that are …
Regulated intracellular proteostasis, controlled in part by proteolysis, is essential in maintaining the integrity of podocytes and the glomerular filtration barrier of the kidney. We …

Membrane fusion is essential for eukaryotic life, requiring SNARE proteins to zipper up in an α‐helical bundle to pull two membranes together. Here, we show that vesicle fusion can be …
Almost half of patients receiving lithium salts have nephrogenic diabetes insipidus. Chronic lithium exposure induces AQP2 downregulation and changes in the cellular composition of …
Diseases of the kidney filtration barrier are a leading cause of ESRD. Most disorders affect the podocytes, polarized cells with a limited capacity for self-renewal that require tightly …
