Grant Activity:
Modelling polycystic kidney disease in vitro
Purpose:
Autosomal Recessive Polycystic Kidney Disease (ARPKD) causes kidney and liver failure in babies and children. One quarter of babies born with ARPKD will not survive after birth. We have recently developed a method to recreate human kidney tissue from stem cells. We will generate stem cells using patient blood samples and use these to make a model of the patient’s ARPKD disease in the laboratory. We will use these patient models to screen for new, personalised treatments for patients with ARPKD.
