Grant Activity:
Stem cell models of glomerular kidney disease for understanding disease and developing treatments
Purpose:
While we can now identify disease-causing mutations in greater than50 percent of children presenting with inherited kidney disease, there are no treatments for these conditions. In this study, we will use human stem cells gene edited to model a series of mutations in the NPHS2 gene known to cause the severe early onset kidney disease, nephrotic syndrome. By recreating mini kidneys from these stem cells, we can screen known and novel compounds to find treatments for this life threatening condition.
