Grant Activity:
Towards renal replacement tissue from pluripotent stem cells
Purpose:
While greater than3 million patients enter kidney failure each year, only 1 in 4 patients receive a donor organ. We have developed a method for creating human kidney tissue using stem cells. While this accurately models the embryonic kidney, it is not functional or mature. In this proposal, we aim to improve our protocol to develop human kidney tissue that is able to expand and function after transplantation. Ultimately, this research hopes to develop stem-cell derived replacement kidney tissue.
