摘要
Purpose of review Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis is a significant and growing cause of chronic kidney disease and nephrotic syndrome in adults and children. Recent findings The last year has seen continued progress in understanding podocyte biology, mechanisms of podocyte dysfunction, and its contribution to proteinuria and focal segmental glomerulosclerosis. Summary A number of studies have helped to elucidate the mechanisms of slit-diaphragm-mediated signaling to the podocyte cytoskeleton. Advances in treatment continue to lag behind advances in understanding focal segmental glomerulosclerosis disease biology.
