Proteinuria and glomerular damage in zebrafish with Osbpl7 knockdown. Osbpl7 knockdown by osbpl7-Mo in l-fabp:DBP-eGFP ZF led to decreased eye fluorescence (A) and increased edema (B). C: representative images of individual zebrafish. D: transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images of the zebrafish glomerulus at 5 DPI with either Control-Mo and osbpl7-Mo. Substantial glomerular damage was conspicuous in the osbpl7-Mo-injected larvae. The detailed TEM analysis revealed the loss of endothelial fenestrations (white arrows) and widening and rupture of the glomerular basement membrane (GBM) (star). The distinct alterations in podocyte structures are shown, including podocyte effacement and protrusions of foot processes into the GBM (black arrows), a common hallmark of proteinuric states in fish. These observations point to clear podocyte and glomerular damage, in alignment with the proteinuria documented in the fish. 4 DPI. n = 16. **P < 0.01 and ****P < 0.001. OSBPL7, oxysterol-binding protein-like 7.
