OBJECTIVE To establish a podocyte cell injury model induced by puromycin aminonucleoside (PAN), an in vitro model for studying the role of podocytes, especial the slit diaphragm molecules in proteinuria at the cellular and molecular levels. METHODS MPC5 were treated for 24 and 48 hours by 15, 45 and 75 mg/L PAN, respectively. The podocyte molecular behavior during podocyte injury was evaluated: the apoptotic podocyte cells were revealed with FITC-Annexin V and Propidium Iodide (PI) assay and the proliferative podocyte cells detected with MTT assay after PAN treatment. The distribution of Nephrin and Podocin was revealed with indirect-immunofluorescent staining under confocal microscope. The distribution of F-actin was revealed with direct-immunofluorescent staining under microscope. RESULTS The percentage of apoptotic podocyte cells was increased in a dose- and time-dependent manner after PAN treatment. In PAN-treated group, the apoptosis was obviously increased at hour 48, the PAN-45 treated group was 33.48% +/- 14.55% and PAN-75 treated group 38.01% +/- 12.13% vs the control group 6.38% +/- 0.50% (P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS We set up an in vitro podocyte injury model treated with PAN for the first time. This reliable cell model is a good basis for further studies on podocyte injury.

D011692 Puromycin Aminonucleoside PUROMYCIN derivative that lacks the methoxyphenylalanyl group on the amine of the sugar ring. It is an antibiotic with antineoplastic properties and can cause nephrosis. 3'-Amino-3'-deoxy-N,N-dimethyladenosine,Aminonucleoside,3' Amino 3' deoxy N,N dimethyladenosine,Aminonucleoside, Puromycin
D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA. Animal,Metazoa,Animalia
D017209 Apoptosis A regulated cell death mechanism characterized by distinctive morphologic changes in the nucleus and cytoplasm, including the endonucleolytic cleavage of genomic DNA, at regularly spaced, internucleosomal sites, i.e., DNA FRAGMENTATION. It is genetically programmed and serves as a balance to mitosis in regulating the size of animal tissues and in mediating pathologic processes associated with tumor growth.

D050199 Podocytes Highly differentiated epithelial cells of the visceral layer of BOWMAN CAPSULE of the KIDNEY. They are composed of a cell body with major CELL SURFACE EXTENSIONS and secondary fingerlike extensions called pedicels. They enwrap the KIDNEY GLOMERULUS capillaries with their cell surface extensions forming a filtration structure. The pedicels of neighboring podocytes interdigitate with each other leaving between them filtration slits that are bridged by an extracellular structure impermeable to large macromolecules called the slit diaphragm, and provide the last barrier to protein loss in the KIDNEY.
