Analysis of haemolysis-based injury in immortalised proximal tubule epithelial cells is impaired by haemoglobin interference with bioluminescence assays.

This study shows that haemoglobin from haemolysed plasma interferes with bioluminescence assays in ciPTECs, but does not severely injure the cells.

Assessing the efficacy of human mesenchymal stromal cells of different tissue origins in a mouse model of kidney ischaemia reperfusion injury

This study evaluates the efficacy of human MSCs from different tissue sources in a mouse kidney IRI model, finding minimal benefits and poor kidney targeting.

Compound design of a patient-derived 3D cell culture system modelling early peritoneal endometriosis

This paper develops a 3D patient-derived co-culture model of early peritoneal endometriosis to study lesion formation and progression.

Dynamic WT1 expression during gastrulation specifies peritoneal smooth muscle fate independently from mesothelial fate.

Modelling Glomerular Filtration using Multispectral Optoacoustic Tomography and a Novel Near-infrared Dye

The paper uses multispectral optoacoustic tomography and a novel near-infrared dye to measure glomerular filtration rate in healthy mice and after ischaemic reperfusion injury.

Restricted differentiative capacity of Wt1-expressing peritoneal mesothelium in postnatal and adult mice.

This study shows that Wt1-expressing peritoneal mesothelial cells in postnatal and adult mice have limited differentiative capacity, only maintaining themselves and not contributing to other visceral tissues or blood vessels.

Ex vivo live cell tracking in kidney organoids using light sheet fluorescence microscopy

This study uses light sheet fluorescence microscopy to track cell fate and morphological development in kidney organoids over 15 hours.

Development of an imaging toolbox to assess the therapeutic potential and biodistribution of macrophages in a mouse model of multiple organ dysfunction

The paper develops an imaging toolbox to assess macrophage therapy effects in a mouse model of multi-organ dysfunction, finding limited functional improvement but persistent macrophage biodistribution in kidneys and liver.
