Development of an in vitro 3D Human Kidney Proximal Tubular Epithelial Tissue Model
The renal proximal tubular (PT) region is the most common site for a compound-specific kidney injury. The PT region is responsible for essential kidney functions, including reabsorption of low molecular weight proteins, solutes, and glucose, secretion of acids, and clearance of administered medications. The ultimate goal of this project is to develop a novel physiologically relevant primary human kidney-cell-based […]
