Background/Aims: Podocytes are typically cultured on collagen I; however, collagen I is absent from healthy glomerular basement membranes. Erythropoietin (EPO) is thought to protect podocytes in vivo. Here, we studied how various types of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins and EPO affect podocytes...
