Gene expression analyses of microdissected tubules have described the genes that are expressed by epithelial cells in all segments of the renal tubule. Most segments contain only one cell type in ...

Chromophobe RCC derives from the intercalated cells of the collecting duct epithelium. Chromophobe RCC is characterized by sheets of large plant-like pale to eosinophilic cells with abundant ...

53 Oncocytoma is thought to originate from type A intercalated cells of the collecting duct, whereas chromophobe renal-cell carcinoma is thought to originate from type B intercalated cells.

More specifically, they developed “highly efficient, serum-free differentiation of hPSCs into UB organoids and functional collecting duct ... human cell lines of principal and intercalated ...

Using first mouse and then human UPCs, the scientists were able to develop cocktails of molecules that encourage the cells to form organoids resembling uretic buds--the branching tubes that eventually ...

According to the release, the team also created the first functional human cell lines of principal and intercalated cell ... These two cell types line the collecting tubular structures that ...

Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) afflicts as many as two million people around the world, affecting multiple organs, including lungs, brain, skin and kidneys. In about 80 percent of cases, it ...

CDC is a rare form of cancer that affects the collecting ducts of the kidneys. Cancer occurs when a person’s cells begin to multiply abnormally. This can cause tumors to develop. CDC is ...
