Abstract

Since the early descriptions of Alport syndrome, when the glomerular basement membrane (GBM) was found split into multiple laminar strands, investigators have wondered about the contribution of various cell types in the differential synthesis of these strands[1][1]; podocytes and endothelia flanking
