The glomerular visceral epithelial cell (podocyte) is characterized as a specialized structure of the interdigitating foot processes, covering the outer side of the glomerular basement membrane (GBM).

A glomerulus-on-a-chip to recapitulate the human glomerular filtration barrier. Nature Communications , 2019; 10 (1) DOI: 10.1038/s41467-019-11577-z Cite This Page : ...

The selectively permeable capillary wall, known as the glomerular filtration barrier (GFB), consists of three main components: glomerular endothelial cells (GEnCs), ...

Conditionally immortalized human glomerular endothelial cells do not respond to insulin, suggesting that insulin has a specific effect on the podocyte in the glomerular filtration barrier.

If everyone goes back to their days of the anatomy of glomeruli, the podocyte is an important cell for maintaining the glomerular filtration barrier. The way I think about it is, ...

The glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is a measure of how well your kidneys are removing waste from your blood, which can be determined using an estimated GFR (eGFR) test. The test gets its name ...
