Low molecular weight heparin improves proteinuria in rats with L-NAME induced preeclampsia by decreasing the expression of nephrin, but not podocin.

CONCLUSION: We demonstrate that down-regulation of nephrin is involved in L-NAME induced proteinuria, and that LMWH reduces proteinuria by up-regulation of neprhin. PMID: 25181538 [PubMed - in process]
