Building a kidney tree: Functional collecting duct from human pluripotent stem cells

Abstract

Human developmental studies and regenerative therapies need in vitro systems that generate cell types recapitulating mature cell physiologies. In a recent issue of Nature Biotechnology, Shi et al. (2022) show how pluripotent stem cells can differentiate into ureteric bud organoids that mature into functional kidney collecting duct cell types.
