Abstract
Myocilin is expressed in podocytes of the kidney and induced in mesangial cells during experimental mesangioproliferative glomerulonephritis. The specific function of myocilin in the kidney is not clear, but in a parallel to functions of other olfactomedin proteins, it might have a role in cell-cell adhesion and/or signaling processes.
