Abstract | Genetics contributes significantly to the development of kidney diseases. In the case of glomerular diseases such as focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, over a dozen genes involved in maintaining and regulating the actin cytoskeleton of podocytes have been implicated. A new study adds the atypical myosin, MYO9A, to that list using a combination of human and mouse genetics, suggesting a link to enhanced RhoA activity. Unraveling the growing web of actin regulators remains a key challenge to understanding podocytopathies. |
