This study shows human urine-derived SIX2-positive renal progenitor cells reduce kidney fibrosis in an IRI mouse model but do not fully restore kidney function within 21 days.

This study uses thyroid hormones to mature hepatocyte-like cells derived from iPSCs, showing improved expression of adult markers and reduced fetal markers.

This paper identifies and characterizes human urine-derived renal progenitor cells, revealing their molecular identity, reprogramming potential, and gene regulatory mechanisms for self-renewal and differentiation.
