Summary
Nephrin is a kidney glomerular filtration barrier protein that is an essential component of the interpodocyte-spanning slit diaphragm. Mutations in the nephrin gene are associated with congenital nephrotic syndrome (NPHS1; MIM 256300).[supplied by OMIM].
Gene References into function
- function in the slit diaphragm and glomerular filtration
- Mutations interact with NPHS2 protein to produce either nephrotic syndrome or focal glomerosclerosis, depending on alleles.
- A missense mutation of the nephrin gene (GAC-to-GTC transversion leading to Asp819Val)impairs targeting of the protein to the cell membrane and causes congenital nephrotic syndrome of the Finnish type (CNF).
- co-localization of podocin, this protein and the actin cytoskeleton: evidence for a role in podocyte foot process formation.
- Nephrin protein and mRNA are differentially expressed in acquired proteinuric diseases according to the specific glomerular disease or severity of glomerular damage.
- investigation of the expression of nephrin in human kidney tissue from patients with diabetic nephropathy to elucidate its relationship with proteinuria and the effects of anti-proteinuric therapy with angiotensin converting enzyme inhibition
- The loss of function of the nephrin gene is the main cause of congenital nephrotic syndrome of the Finnish type in Italian patients.
- This study does not support an involvement of the coding region of the nephrin gene in the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy in type 1 diabetic patients.
- study indicates that the alteration in nephrin expression is an early event in proteinuric patients with diabetes and suggests that glycated albumin and angiotensin II contribute to nephrin downregulation
- Nephrin is a signaling protein phosphorylated by Src family kinases.
- This study suggests that the NPHS1 G349A polymorphism may be associated with heavy proteinuria and a decline in renal function in patients with IgAN.
- Abnormal distribution of nephrin, podocin, and alpha-actinin were found in children with nephrotic syndrome.
- Nephrin molecules exhibit homophilic interactions that could promote cellular contacts through direct nephrin-nephrin interactions.
- The expression of nephrin mRNA maybe closely linked to the development and progression of proteinuria in diabetic nephropathy.
- an alteration in nephrin expression is not a feature of acquired forms of nephrotic syndrome in childhood.
- heterozygous allelic variants leading to nonconservative amino acid substitutions not previously reported in minimal change nephrotic syndrome
- Extracellular nephrin mRNA and protein were markedly reduced in diabetic patients.
- Interaction of vascular endothelial growth factor with nephrin in cultured human podocytes reduced apoptosis.
- Recombinant WT1 protein can bind and activate the 186-bp NPHS1 fragment in a sequence-specific manner. WT1 may be required for regulation of the NPHS1 gene in vivo.
- NPHN contributes to a porous slit diaphragm scaffold, the molecular filter in renal glomerular capillaries.
- To characterize the structural properties and protein-protein interactions of the nephrin intracellular domain, we produced a series of recombinant nephrin proteins which all bound previously identified ligands
- exposure to normal and non-nephrotic human plasma leads to a concentration of nephrin, podocin, CD2AP, and actin at the cell surface in podocytes
- Mutations are not a major cause of congenital nephrotic syndrome in Japanese patients.
- serum and plasma factors from focal segmental glomerulosclerosis patients may directly affect nephrin and podocin in human podocytes
- Nephrin is expressed at protein and mRNA levels in islet microvascular endothelium.
- data show that PPARalpha activation causes an increased nephrin expression by a dual action, on the one hand by stimulating nephrin promoter activity and on the other hand by reducing nephrin mRNA degradation
- nephrin selectively binds the Src homology 2 (SH2)/SH3 domain-containing Nck adaptor proteins, which in turn control the podocyte cytoskeleton in vivo
- nephrin phosphorylation results in Src kinase activation, recruitment of Nck, and assembly of actin filaments in an Nck-dependent fashion
- Association of single 3 nucleotide polymorphisms with type 2 diabetes.
- A striking finding in this study is the lack of contribution of NPHS1, NPHS2, and NEPH1 genes in 15 Asian families with steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome.
- Results suggest that nephrin Y1193 serves as a molecular switch that determines the integrity of the slit diaphragm by functional competition between beta-arrestin2 and podocin.
- Mutations may play pathogenetic roles in some patients with sporadic steroid resistant nephrotic syndrome.
- We conclude that down-regulation of nephrin and synaptopodin is associated with proteinuria in women with preeclampsia.
- Mutated in nephrotic syndrome in an 11-year old boy.
- Knocking nephrin down with siRNA in wild-type podocytes abrogated the insulin response, and stable nephrin transfection of nephrin-deficient podocytes rescued their insulin response.
- 3 novel mutations: c.1138C>T (p.Gln380X), c.2160_ 2161insC (p.Cys721fs) and c.1707C>G (p.Ser569Arg)were identified in a highly inbred community; patients were either homozygous for one mutation or compound heterozygotes; they differed in their phenotype
- Nephrin-Neph1 complex transduces phosphorylation-mediated signals that assemble an actin polymerization complex at the podocyte intercellular junction.
- Any one of three phosphorylated (p)YDXV motifs on nephrin is sufficient to recruit Nck through its Src homology 2 (SH2) domain and induce localized actin polymerization at these clusters.
- Neph1 but not nephrin specifically binds to adaptor protein Grb2 and tyrosine kinase Csk in a phosphorylation-dependent manner.
- Reduction of endogenous nephrin expression by application of siRNA to differentiated cells of an immortalized podocyte cell line markedly reduced steady-state surface expression of Slo1.
- Thirteen novel NPHS1 mutations have been analyzed in a large cohort of children with congenital nephrotic syndrome.
- Neph1-Nephrin proteins bind the Par3-Par6-atypical protein kinase C (aPKC) complex to regulate podocyte cell polarity
- mutations in NPHS1 were linked to later age of onset and milder couse of disease
