Modeling kidney development, disease, and plasticity with clonal expandable nephron progenitor cells and nephron organoids

Abstract excerpt
<h4>SUMMARY</h4> Nephron progenitor cells (NPCs) self-renew and differentiate into nephrons, the functional units of the kidney. Here we report manipulation of p38 and YAP activity creates a synthetic niche that allows the long-term clonal expansion of primary mouse and human NPCs, and induced NPCs (iNPCs) from human pluripotent stem cells. Cultured iNPCs resemble closely primary human NPCs, generating nephron or...
