Quantifying Podocytes and Parietal Epithelial Cells in Human Urine Using Liquid-based Cytology and WT1 Immunoenzyme Staining
2018
In glomerular disease, podocytes and parietal epithelial cells (PECs) are shed in the urine. Therefore, urinary podocytes and PECs are noninvasive biomarkers of glomerular disease. The purpose of this protocol is to employ immunocytochemistry to detect podocytes and PECs, using the WT1 antibody on liquid-based cytology slides.
