Perfectly punctual or fashionably late, it takes all kinds to build a kidney. So it is for stem cells building kidney tissue discovered timing is critical as the precise arrival of progenitor cells ...
Scientists report significant progress in cultivating nephron progenitor cells (NPCs), the cells destined to form the kidney's filtration system, the nephrons. NPCs hold immense promise for ...
Glucagon-sensitive adenylate cyclase [ATP pyrophosphate-lyase (cyclizing), EC 4.6.1.1] activity was measured in nine different portions of the rat nephron. Each sample contained a single piece of ...

Stem cell scientists unlock blueprint for lab-grown kidney cells with preclinical value
In the lab, it's easier to grow simple balls of cells than complex asymmetrical structures with two distinct ends—like the one million filtering units—nephrons—that make up a human kidney. But new ...
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a global health threat, affecting over 10% of the world population, including an estimated 37 million Americans. Importantly, glomerular diseases account for 70% of all ...
