Renal Glomerular Epithelial Cells added to Human Kidney Cell Portfolio

As part of the Urogenital Cell group, CAI kidney cells also include Human Renal Proximal Tubular Epithelial Cells. HRPTEpC play pivotal roles in kidney function, glucose & protein reabsorbtion, and diabetes-associated glucotoxicity. HRPTEpC from Cell Applications, Inc. recently helped elucidate how metabolic enzymes respond to energy depletion.
Together, these two cell types offer a strong 1-2 punch in the research battle against serious, and potentially fatal loss of kidney function. A number of conditions are related to dysfunction in this organ pair, including urinary tract infections, polycystic kidney disease, chronic kidney disease, diabetes and end-stage renal failure. While the list of maladies is substantial, kidney disease can often be addressed by early detection, and hopes remain high to successfully treat more advances stages.
