Happy to share this review Nature Reviews Nephrology and hoping it will be a resource to advance the field and our understanding of what Uromodulin does. Kudos to all authors especially Azuma Nanamatsu! nature.com/articles/s4158… nature.com/articles/s4158…

Urine for a renal treat today & we're not being irrational! It is #worldkidneyday2025 & #PiDay, so it's time for a slice of kidney pi(e))! This CODEX image of a kidney pi slice was made by #hubmap researchers Drs. Tarek Ashkar & Sanjay Jain @wustl, no kidney-ing around!

Kidney cells can protect themselves during injury, but the mechanisms were unclear. ASCI member Tarek M. El-Achkar Tarek M. Ashkar (El-Achkar) & team IU School of Medicine now show that oxidative stress induces an isoform of uromodulin that re-routes to the mitochondria to enhance energy production.
