This paper describes a novel fetal therapy approach using transplanted fetal kidneys from different species to provide a bridge to dialysis in affected fetuses, demonstrating successful urine production and long-term function without immunosuppressants.

This study generates human-pig chimeric renal organoids using modified human-mouse chimeric methods, demonstrating successful interspecies kidney development.

This study evaluates the growth of transplanted metanephros in rats using imaging and finds that optimizing urinary tract reconstruction timing reduces fibrosis.
