Glycosaminoglycans and fucoidan have a protective effect on experimental glomerulonephritis
1Department of Nephrology, Radboud Institute of Molecular Life Sciences, Radboud University Medical Center, Nijmegen, Netherlands 2Division of Nephrology, Department of Internal Medicine, The Einthoven Laboratory for Vascular and Regenerative Medicine, Leiden University Medical Center, Leiden, Netherlands Background: The glomerular endothelial glycocalyx is degraded during inflammation.
Heparanase-2 protein and peptides have a protective effect on experimental glomerulonephritis and diabetic nephropathy
Introduction Diabetic nephropathy (DN) and glomerulonephritis are two distinct types of glomerular diseases that affect millions of people worldwide. A common hallmark of DN and glomerulonephritis is proteinuria. Various studies have shown that a key player in the development of proteinuria in glomerular diseases is the endothelial glycocalyx (Garsen et al., 2014; van der Vlag and Buijsers, 2020).
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor ɣ agonist mediated inhibition of heparanase expression reduces proteinuria
Summary Background Proteinuria is associated with many glomerular diseases and a risk factor for the progression to renal failure. We previously showed that heparanase (HPSE) is essential for the development of proteinuria, whereas peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor ɣ (PPARɣ) agonists can ameliorate proteinuria.
