Smad2-dependent downregulation of miR-30 is required for TGF-β-induced apoptosis in podocytes.
Transforming growth factors beta (TGF-β) are multi-functional cytokines capable of inducing apoptosis in epithelial cells, including glomerular podocytes. We and others have previously shown that podocyte-selective genetic deletion of the microRNA (miR)-processing enzyme, Dicer, caused glomeruloscle...
