This study identifies early glomerular changes and gene expression patterns in Alport syndrome, showing ER stress and four genes as key drivers of disease before proteinuria, and highlights potential therapeutic targets.

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.

The paper constructs a reference tissue atlas of the human kidney using multi-omics data to identify cell types, pathways, and genes across nephron segments and interstitium.
