Happy to share our new preprint: long-term clonal expansion of nephron progenitor cells (NPCs); genome-wide CRISPR screen in NPCs; nephron organoids with distal tubules; modeling nephron plasticity; rapid modeling and drug screening for PKD…biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Celebrating #WorldKidneyDay with UKRO and Zhongwei Li’s lab USC Stem Cell and @KeckSchool_USC. Zhongwei Li and colleagues McMahon Lab, Nils Lindstrom and Janos Peti-Peterdi are progressing on generating a transplantable kidney from human stem cells to replace dialysis.

A new USC Stem Cell study, led by Zhongwei Li's Lab (Zhongwei Li), introduces a new and improved way to grow the cells that give rise to the kidney’s filtration system. McMahon Lab Nils Lindstrom UKRO Cell Press NIH Common Fund stemcell.keck.usc.edu/usc-led-study-…

A USC Stem Cell study, led by Zhongwei Li, improved the ability to cultivate nephron progenitor cells (NPCs), the cells that give rise to the kidney's filtration system. stemcell.keck.usc.edu/usc-led-study-…

In our new Resource Article Cell Stem Cell we describe an expandable nephron progenitor cell-based kidney organoid platform with broad applications. Unlimited supply of human nephron progenitor cells makes us one step closer to making a synthetic kidney for transplantation.
