Podocyte Density and Albuminuria in Aging Diabetic Ins2 ± Mice with or Without Adenosine A1 Receptor Signaling.

Conclusion: The amount of albuminuria as marker of diabetic nephropathy does not correlate with the podocytes density; however, a relative podocyte deficiency became evident with an increase in glomerular area in the diabetic animals, suggesting a relative podocytopenia.
