Scientists have made a remarkable breakthrough in kidney research. In a paper published in the journal Communications Biology, a team of researchers at Kyoto University led by Ramin Sadeghian present ...

Proteinuria, especially albuminuria, serves as an independent risk factor for progression in cardiovascular and renal diseases. Clinical and experimental studies have demonstrated that renal nerves ...

aProximate TM is an advanced in vitro model of kidney proximal tubule cells (PTCs) that closely mimics physiological conditions. Derived from fresh human kidney tissue, aProximate TM PTCs are cultured ...

Renal tubule has distinct metabolic features and functional activity that may be altered during kidney disease. In this paper, we present label-free functional activity imaging of renal tubule in ...

SINGAPORE, 1 February 2023 – In a world first, scientists at Duke-NUS Medical School, the National Heart Centre Singapore (NHCS) and colleagues in Germany have shown that regenerative therapy to ...

In videos created by the Hughes Lab to visualize the process, adjacent nephrons form one after the other, as if they were following a beat. “It’s still a hypothesis,” adds Hughes, “but we think that ...

The kidneys contain millions of microscopic blood vessels known as peritubular capillaries. These vessels recapture helpful nutrients like glucose and minerals and return them to your bloodstream for ...

MDI Bio Lab scientists discovered how zebrafish solve a basic challenge in regenerative biology—insights in their newest publication in the journal Development could one day guide human repair. When ...

Otsuka’s Voyxact was granted accelerated approval from the FDA in November 2025 based on nine-month data.

The normal functioning of kidneys requires high levels of energy and kidney disease is characterized by a disruption of that energy metabolism. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) is a molecule ...
