This study shows that GRP170 protects podocytes from stress-induced glomerular injury by modulating the UPR, as demonstrated in a podocyte-specific knockout mouse model.

This study shows that excess dietary sodium partially restores electrolyte imbalance and kidney injury markers in GRP170-deficient mice but not weight or tubule integrity.

The paper identifies new disease-associated ROMK variants using genomic databases and computational tools, revealing distinct molecular defects in protein folding and function.
