Abstract
Multiple myeloma (MM) is characterized by recurrent chromosomal translocations. T(4;14) MM overexpresses multiple myeloma SET domain-containing protein (MMSET). MMSET has three major isoforms: the full-length form MMSET II and the short isoforms REIIBP and MMSET I. Here we show that the short isoform MMSET I is an oncoprotein that promoted cell survival and tumorigenesis in vitro and in vivo. Gene expression array analysis indicated that MMSET I increased glyoxalase I (GLO1) expression. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) coupled with qPCR indicated that MMSET I bound upstream of the GLO1 transcription start site. Ectopic overexpression of MMSET I or its mutants showed MMSET I depended on its C terminus to regulate GLO1 expression. GLO1 knockdown (KD) induced apoptosis and reduced colony formation. MMSET I or GLO1 KD reduced the levels of anti-apoptosis factors such as MCL1 and BCL2. Ectopic overexpression of GLO1 resulted in the significant rescue of KMS11 cells from MMSET I KD-induced apoptosis and glycolysis inhibition. This suggested that GLO1 may be of functional importance target downstream of MMSET I. Cumulatively, our study suggests that MMSET I is an oncoprotein and potential therapeutic target for t(4;14) MM.

Abstract
alpha-Dystroglycan (DG) is a negatively charged membrane-associated glycoprotein that links the cytoskeleton to the extracellular matrix. Previously, we described that alpha-DG covers the whole podocyte cell membrane in the rat. However, our finding was challenged by the description of a strictly basolateral localization in human kidney biopsies, using a different antibody against alpha-DG. Therefore, we studied the exact localization of glomerular alpha-DG by using these two antibodies in both species. The studies were performed by using monoclonal antibodies (MoAbs) IIH6 and VIA4.1 in immunofluorescence, confocal microscopy, and immunoelectron microscopy on both rat and human kidney sections, as well as on cultured mouse podocytes. The apical localization of alpha-DG on podocytes was more dominant than the basolateral localization. The basolateral staining with MoAb VIA4.1 was more pronounced than that of MoAb IIH6. With both MoAbs, the staining in rat kidneys was more prominent, in comparison to human kidneys. We conclude that alpha-DG is expressed at both the basolateral and apical sides of the podocyte. This localization suggests that alpha-DG plays a dual role in the maintenance of the unique architecture of podocytes by its binding to the glomerular basement membrane, and in the maintenance of the integrity of the filtration slit, respectively.

Abstract
One of the hallmarks of mammalian nephrogenesis includes a mesenchymal-epithelial transition that is accomplished by intercalation of the ureteric bud, an epithelium-lined tubelike structure, into an undifferentiated mesenchyme, and the latter then undergoes an inductive transformation and differentiates into an epithelial phenotype. At the same time, the differentiating mesenchyme reciprocates by inducing branching morphogenesis of the ureteric bud, which forms a treelike structure with dichotomous iterations. These reciprocal inductive interactions lead to the development of a functioning nephron unit made up of a glomerulus and proximal and distal tubules. The inductive interactions and differentiation events are modulated by a number of transcription factors, protooncogenes, and growth factors and their receptors, which regulate the expression of target morphogenetic modulators including the ECM, integrin receptors, and cell adhesion molecules. These target macromolecules exhibit spatiotemporal and stage-specific developmental regulation in the metanephros. The ECM molecules expressed at the epithelial-mesenchymal interface are perhaps the most relevant and conducive to the paracrine-juxtacrine interactions in a scenario where the ligand is expressed in the mesenchyme while the receptor is located in the ureteric bud epithelium or vice versa. In addition, expression of the target ECM macromolecules is regulated by matrix metalloproteinases and their inhibitors to generate a concentration gradient at the interface to further propel epithelial-mesenchymal interactions so that nephrogenesis can proceed seamlessly. In this review, we discuss and update our current understanding of the role of the ECM and related macromolecules with respect to metanephric development.

Abstract
The sturgeon is an ancient species of fish that thrives in a wide range of ecological environments, from freshwater to seawater. Basic in this process of adaptation is the ability of the kidney to control fluid filtration and urine formation. However, the morphological basis of this process is mostly unknown. The aim of the present study was to use microdissection techniques (scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and lectin-binding histochemistry) to examine the structure of the renal corpuscle of the sturgeon Acipenser nacarii in order to reveal morphologic features that could be related to function, phylogeny, and habitat. The renal corpuscles are aligned along the intrarrenal arteries. The urinary pole shows a siphon-like neck segment (NS) in 92% of the nephrons, whose structural characteristics are different from those of other fish. The podocytes have cuboidal cellular bodies, intercellular contacts, and poorly developed cell processes. The podocyte glycocalyx contains N-acetylglucosamine and lacks sialic acid. The structural and lectin-binding patterns are similar to those found in the immature mammalian kidney. The glomerular basement membrane (GBM) is very thick and consists of three layers: a lamina rara externa, a lamina densa, and a thick subendothelial lamina. The latter contains tubular microfibrils, collagen fibers, and long mesangial cell processes. Frequently, the podocyte bodies attach directly to the GBM, and the area occupied by the filtration slits is very small. Furthermore, the GBM shows a glycosylation pattern different from that observed in most vertebrates. Contrary to what would be expected in sturgeons living in freshwater, the A. nacarii renal corpuscle morphology suggests a low glomerular filtration rate.

Abstract
During development, renal glomerular epithelial cells (podocytes) undergo extensive morphologic changes necessary for creation of the glomerular filtration apparatus. These changes include formation of interdigitating foot processes, replacement of tight junctions with slit diaphragms, and the concomitant opening of intercellular urinary spaces. It was postulated previously and confirmed recently that podocalyxin, a sialomucin, plays a major role in maintaining the urinary space open by virtue of the physicochemical properties of its highly negatively charged ectodomain. This study examined whether the highly conserved cytoplasmic tail of podocalyxin also contributes to the unique organization of podocytes by interacting with the cytoskeletal network found in their cell bodies and foot processes. By immunocytochemistry, it was shown that podocalyxin and the actin binding protein ezrin are co-expressed in podocytes and co-localize along the apical plasma membrane, where they form a co-immunoprecipitable complex. Selective detergent extraction followed by differential centrifugation revealed that some of the podocalyxin cosediments with actin filaments. Moreover, its sedimentation is dependent on polymerized actin and is mediated by complex formation with ezrin. Once formed, podocalyxin/ezrin complexes are very stable, because they are insensitive to actin depolymerization or inactivation of Rho kinase, which is known to be necessary for regulation of ezrin and to mediate Rho-dependent actin organization. These data indicate that in podocytes, podocalyxin is complexed with ezrin, which mediates its link to the actin cytoskeleton. Thus, in addition to its ectodomain, the cytoplasmic tail of podocalyxin also likely contributes to maintaining the unique podocyte morphology.

Abstract
Mammalian nephrogenesis begins by the reciprocal interaction of the ureteric bud with the undifferentiated mesenchyme. The mesenchyme differentiates into an epithelial phenotype with the development of the glomerulus and proximal and distal tubules. At the same time, the mesenchyme stimulates the branching morphogenesis of the ureteric bud that differentiates into the collecting ducts. These inductive interactions and differentiation events are modulated by a number of macromolecules, including the extracellular matrix (ECM), integrin receptors, and cell adhesion molecules. Many of these macromolecules exhibit spatiotemporal developmental regulation in the metanephros. Some are expressed in the mesenchyme, whereas others appear in the ureteric bud epithelia. The molecules expressed in the mesenchyme or at the epithelial:mesenchymal interface may serve as ligands while those in the epithelia serve as the receptors. In such a scenario the ligand and the receptor would be ideally suited for epithelial:mesenchymal paracrine/juxtacrine interactions that are also influenced by RGD sequences and Ca2+ binding domains of the ECM proteins and their receptors. This review addresses the role of such interactions in metanephric development.

Abstract
Mammalian nephrogenesis constitutes a series of complex developmental processes in which there is a differentiation and rapid proliferation of pluripotent cells leading to the formation of a defined sculpted tissue mass, and this is followed by a continuum of cell replication and terminal differentiation. Metanephrogenesis ensues with the intercalation of epithelial ureteric bud into loosely organized metanephric mesenchyme. Such an interaction is reciprocal, such that the intercalating ureteric bud induces the conversion of metanephric mesenchyme into an epithelial phenotype, while the mesenchyme stimulates the iterations of the ureteric bud. The induced mesenchyme then undergoes a series of developmental stages to form a mature glomerulus and tubular segments of the kidney. Coincidental with the formation of these nephric elements, the developing kidney is vascularized by the process of vasculogenesis and angiogenesis. Thus, the process of metanephric development is quite complex, and it involves a diverse group of molecules who's biological activities are inter-linked with one another and they regulate, in a concerted manner, the differentiation and maturation of the mammalian kidney. This diverse group of molecules include extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins and their receptors, ECM-degrading enzymes and their inhibitors, growth factors and their receptors, proto-oncogenes and transcription factors. A large body of literature data are available, which suggest a critical role of these molecules in metanephric development, and this review summarizes the recent developments that relate to metanephrogenesis.

Abstract
Fluorochrome-labeled lectins were used to study the expression of glycoconjugates during the postnatal differentiation of normal and cystic rabbit renal corpuscles. Glomerular cysts (GC) are induced in the rabbit by a single injection of corticoids. The Bowman's capsule of these cysts is exclusively formed of podocytes (parietal podocytes). During normal development, the cell coat of the podocytes is intensely positive for wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) and Maclura pomifera agglutinin (MPA). This reaction decreases considerably during maturation, in parallel with an increase in the number of binding sites masked by terminal sialylation. Throughout the stages studied, the podocyte coat is peanut agglutinin (PNA)-negative, but it becomes intensely positive after neuraminidase treatment. Visceral and parietal podocytes in the glomerular cysts show the same pattern of glycosylation as the normal podocytes. In contrast, normal parietal cells only transiently expressed a weak reactivity to WGA and MPA during the first stages of differentiation, and did not express cryptic binding sites at any stage. The glomerular basement membrane (GBM) is positive to WGA, to succinylated WGA, and to MPA, in all the stages studied. Maturation of the GBM is characterized by expression of cryptic MPA-binding sites, and by a considerable increase in the number of cryptic PNA-binding sites. The basement membrane of the parietal layer of the cystic Bowman's capsule shows the same pattern of glycosylation, despite the fact that this epithelial layer is solely formed of podocytes and lacks endothelial cells. In contrast, the normal parietal basement membrane does not express PNA or MPA cryptic sites at any stage.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
To enhance the efficiency and specificity of diamine methods in light microscopy, these methods were sensitized by silver enhancement in combination with trichloro(ethylene) platinate (KTP). The sensitized diamine methods consisted of a diamine (high or low iron diamine: HID or LID), KTP, borohydride reduction (BH) and a physical development (PD) sequence. The new methods have been successfully applied to routinely prepared tissue sections obtained from rat organs, such as salivary glands, stomach, colon, kidney, lung and trachea. In the tissues subjected to the sensitized diamine methods, weakly diamine-stained histological structures exhibited vivid positive reactions. The combined sensitized diamine methods and selective procedures, such as enzyme digestion and chemical modification, have substantiated that these methods were of sufficient efficiency and specificity.

Abstract
Immunohistochemical experiments with monoclonal antibodies (mabs) on the kidney of neonatal rabbits revealed that the primary expression of collecting duct typic structures does not occur in a continuous and parallel, but in a subsequent developmental process. Only mabs RCT-30 A, and CD 4-V revealed immunoreactivity at the ontogenetically oldest parts of the collecting duct, the ampullae, while the other used markers (CD 1-3, CD 5-V, RCT-30 and RMCX) did not. In contrast, all of the tested antibodies showed positive reactions at the medullary and cortical collecting duct of the neonatal kidney as well as of the adult kidney. Additional incubations with wheat-germ agglutinin (WGA) a marker of terminal-differentiated collecting duct cells demonstrated weak-labelled ampulla cells beside intensively labelled ampullary neck and medullary collecting duct cells. With peanut agglutinin (PNA) labelling a 3 step transition could be illuminated: weak-labelled ampulla cells were found beside continuously bright labelled ampullary neck cells and finally a punctuate pattern downwards to the papilla. If the ampullary neck is the zone of proliferation, our findings of WGA- and PNA-co-labelling in this zone indicate, that in early developmental stages characteristic structures of different mature cells, probably principal and intercalated cells, are co-expressed within one single cell type. Thus intercalated cells might derive from principal cells.
