Proximal Tubular Expression Patterns of Megalin and Cubilin in Proteinuric Nephropathies
Receptor-mediated endocytosis is responsible for protein reabsorption in the proximal tubules. For albumin this process involves at least 2 interacting receptors, megalin and cubilin. Albumin is not usually present in the urine, indicating a highly efficient tubular reuptake under physiological cond...
