摘要

We describe here the size and location of nephrin , the first protein to be identified at the glomerular podocyte slit diaphragm. In Western blots, nephrin antibodies generated against the two terminal extracellular Ig domains of recombinant human nephrin recognized a 180-kDa protein in lysates of human glomeruli and a 150-kDa protein in atransfected COS-7 cell lysates. In immunofluorescence, antibodies to this transmembrane protein revealed reactivity in the glomerylar basement membrane region, whereas the podocyte cell bodies remained negative. In immunogold-stained thin sections, nephrin label was found at the slit between podocyte foot processes. The congenital nephrotic syndrome of the Finnish type NPHS1), a disease in which the nephrin gene is mutated, is characterized by massive proteinuria already in uatero and lack of slit diaphragm and foot processe. These features, together with the now demonstrated localizaation of nephrin to the slit deaphragm area, suggests an essential role for this protein in the normal glomerular filtration barrier. A zipper-like model for nephrin assembly in athe slit deaphragm is discussed, based on the present and previous data.
