| Glomerular damage Visualizing the progression of glomerular damage over time at the microscopic level. This sequence captures the structural deterioration of the glomerulus over time — including podocyte disruption and loss, fusion of foot processes, thickening of the glomerular basement membrane, and secretion of extracellular matrix. Opener animation for a series that discusses the relationship between type 2 diabetes, chronic kidney disease, and increased risk for cardiovascular disease. #GlomerularDamage #ChronicKidneyDisease #Type2DiabetesComplications #KidneyHealthEducation #DiabeticNephropathy #GlomerularBasementMembrane #PodocyteLoss #ExtracellularMatrix #DiabetesAndKidneys #hybridmedical #sciencevisuals #sciart #bioart #visualeffects #science #scienceart #medicalanimation #medicalillustration #biologyclass #scicomm #scientistsofinstagram #medicalvisualisation #scientificanimation #medstudent #medschool
