The first cell atlas of the human kidney's immune system has been created after scientists mapped nearly 70,000 individual kidney cells from early life and adults. Researchers generated the atlas and ...

The kidney, a critical organ for waste filtration and fluid regulation, is the subject of a molecular mapping project that could reshape our understanding of renal health. Despite advances in ...

Despite impacting an estimated 850 million people and being responsible for 1 in 60 deaths worldwide, few treatments are available for chronic kidney disease. Understanding the genetic variations ...

Researchers at the Perelman School of Medicine identified over 1,000 genes that could serve as potential treatment targets for kidney disease in a newly published study. The study marks the most ...

Expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) studies illuminate genomic variants that regulate specific genes and contribute to fine-mapped loci discovered via genome-wide association studies (GWAS).

PHILADELPHIA – Over 1,000 genes may serve as possible treatment targets for individuals with kidney disease, according to a new study, published in Science, from researchers at the Perelman School of ...

Understanding the genetic variations associated with chronic kidney disease represents an important step for drug development. Now, and in what they claim is one of the most comprehensive genome-wide ...

Kidneys perform complex functions and maintain body homeostasis through a diverse range of specialized parenchymal cells residing in distinct compartments. Within tissues, resident immune populations ...

Advanced microscope technology and cutting-edge geological science are giving new perspectives to an old medical mystery: How do kidney stones form, why are some people more susceptible to them and ...

The first cell atlas of the human kidney's immune system has been created after scientists mapped nearly 70,000 individual kidney cells from early life and adults. Researchers at the Wellcome Sanger ...
