Expression of Neph1 in controls and biopsies based on iEM (Au/µm²)

	Proteinuria, g/ 24 h	Podocytes	FPE areas	Non-FPE areas
Controls (n = 5)	0	1.5 ± 0.2	–	–
FSGS (n = 5)	1–8	0.3 ± 0.1*	0.3 ± 0.2*	0.5 ±0.3*
MCNS (n = 5)	1–27	0.5 ± 0.1*	0.5 ± 0.1*	0.5 ±0.2*

Data are presented as means ± standard deviation and are based on counting 3 images in 6 randomly selected capillaries, thus 18 images per glomerulus per biopsy.

^*p < 0.05 compared to controls.
