The Role of Angiotensin II in Glomerular Volume Dynamics and Podocyte Calcium Handling
Abstract Podocytes are becoming a primary focus of research efforts due to their association with progressive glomeruli damage in disease states. Loss of podocytes can occur as a result of excessive intracellular calcium influx, and we have previously shown that angiotensin II (Ang II) via canonical...
