Sep. 18, 2024 — A team developed a human iPS cell-derived kidney organoid-based proximal tubule-on-chip -- OPTECs-on-Chip -- that mimics in vivo renal physiology more closely than ever before.

Students will be provided the opportunity for in-depth independent undergraduate research to study signal transduction mechanisms controlling the growth and differentiation of cultured kidney tubule ...

Expert Rev of Obstet Gynecol. 2012;7(3):269-279. In summary, excess levels of urobilinogen and bilirubin in the urine may signal liver disease, and more research is needed to correlate these ...
