This paper demonstrates the generation of advanced bioengineered kidney tissues using decellularized scaffolds and human pluripotent stem cell-derived progenitors, showing functional integration in vivo.

This study shows that glutamine deprivation promotes podocyte maturation in renal organoids through metabolic and transcriptomic changes during differentiation.

This study shows that asynchronous mixing of kidney progenitor cells in organoids enhances nephrogenesis and functional features, but stromal overgrowth limits long-term study.
