Perfectly punctual or fashionably late, it takes all kinds to build a kidney. So it is for stem cells building kidney tissue discovered timing is critical as the precise arrival of progenitor cells ...
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 ...

Using pig kidneys wiped clean of all animal cells save for their basic organ structure, scientists have successfully built support "scaffolding" they believe can offer the framework from which to ...
We're blessed with two bean-shaped kidneys, the size of a fist, on either side of the spine. The kidneys are located in the abdominal cavity below the diaphragm. It can be found at the lower end of ...
Arriving early or late can have big consequences for early-stage cells that gather to form a new kidney, USC researchers discovered. The scientists showed how progenitor cells that form the kidney’s ...
