A MEF2C transcription factor network regulates proliferation of glomerular endothelial cells in diabetic kidney disease

This study identifies a MEF2C transcription factor network that regulates endothelial cell proliferation in diabetic kidney disease and shows that SGLT2i treatment can reverse its dysregulation.

Integration of spatial multiplexed protein imaging and transcriptomics in the human kidney tracks the regenerative potential timeline of proximal tubules

The chromatin landscape of healthy and injured cell types in the human kidney

The paper defines the chromatin landscape of healthy and injured kidney cells using multi-omics data, identifying regulatory elements and transcription factor networks involved in injury response.

An atlas of healthy and injured cell states and niches in the human kidney

The paper creates a high-resolution cellular atlas of healthy and injured kidney cell states and niches using single-cell and spatial technologies, identifying molecular signatures and pathways related to kidney injury.

Alterations in protein translation and carboxylic acid catabolic processes in diabetic kidney disease

The paper identifies altered protein translation and carboxylic acid catabolism in diabetic kidney disease using human and mouse models.

Integration of spatial transcriptomic and single cell sequencing identifies expression patterns underlying immune and epithelial cell cross-talk in acute kidney injury

The paper integrates spatial transcriptomics and single cell sequencing to identify immune and epithelial cell cross-talk patterns in acute kidney injury models.
