Elucidating the Proximal Tubule HNF4A Gene Regulatory Network in Human Kidney Organoids
25 Jul 2023
Abstract excerpt
SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: HNF4 genes promote proximal tubule differentiation in mice, but their function in human nephrogenesis is not fully defined. This study uses human pluripotent stem cell (PSC)-derived kidney organoids as a model to investigate HNF4A and HNF4G functions. The loss of HNF4A , but not HNF4G , impaired reabsorption-related molecule expression and microvilli formation in human proximal tubules....
