Inhibition of asparagine synthetase effectively retards polycystic kidney disease progression

open access: yesEMBO Molecular Medicine
Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is a genetic disorder characterized by bilateral cyst formation. We showed that PKD cells and kidneys display metabolic alterations, including the Warburg effect and glutaminolysis, sustained in vitro by the enzyme ...

Cystic Diseases of the Kidney

open access: yes, 2020
Cystic diseases of the kidney range from indolent, incidentally diagnosed simple renal cysts to severe life-threatening renal insufficiency seen in neonates and infants with autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD). Multicystic dysplastic kidney (MCDK) and autosomal dominant cystic disease (ADPKD) are examples of the most common cystic ...

Biomaterial Strategies for Targeted Intracellular Delivery to Phagocytes

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Phagocytes are essential to a functional immune system, and their behavior defines disease outcomes. Engineered particles offer a strategic opportunity to target phagocytes, harnessing inflammatory modulation in disease. By tuning features like size, shape, and surface, these systems can modulate immune responses and improve targeted treatment for a ...
