Molecular Mechanisms of Receptor-Mediated Endocytosis in the Renal Proximal Tubular Epithelium
Receptor-mediated endocytosis is a pivotal function of renal proximal tubule epithelial cells (PTECs) to reabsorb and metabolize substantial amounts of proteins and other substances in glomerular filtrates. The function accounts for the conservation of nutrients, including carrier-bound vitamins and...
