Podocytes, the visceral epithelial cells of the kidney glomerulus, elaborate primary and interdigitating secondary extensions to enwrap the glomerular capillaries. A hallmark of podocyte injury is the loss of unique ultrastructure and simplification of the cell shape, called foot process effacement, which is a classic feature of proteinuric kidney disease. Although several key pathways have been identified that control cytoskeletal regulation, actin dynamics, and polarity signaling, studies into the dynamic regulation of the podocyte structure have been hampered by the fact that ultrastructural analyses require electron microscopic imaging of fixed tissue. We developed a new technique that allows for visualization of podocyte foot processes using confocal laser scanning microscopy. The combination of inducible and mosaic expression of membrane-tagged fluorescent proteins in a small subset of podocytes enabled us to acquire light microscopic images of podocyte foot processes in unprecedented detail, even in living podocytes of freshly isolated glomeruli. Moreover, this technique visualized oscillatory glomerular contractions and confirmed the morphometric evaluations obtained in static electron microscopic images of podocyte processes. These data suggest that the new technique will provide an extremely powerful tool for studying the dynamics of podocyte ultrastructure.
