Translating Organoids into Artificial Kidneys
Current Transplantation Reports, 2022 Kidney disease affects more than 13% of the world population, and current treatment options are limited to dialysis and organ transplantation. The generation of kidney organoids from human-induced pluripotent stem (hiPS) cells could be harnessed to ...

Molecular insight into COF monolayers for urea sorption in artificial kidneys
Scientific Reports, 2021 Urea removal from an aqueous solution is considered a challenge in the biological process. The state of complete kidney destruction is known as an end-stage renal disease (ESRD).

Journal of Materials Science: Materials in Medicine, 2021 Urea is the result of the breakdown of proteins in the liver, the excess of which circulates in the blood and is adsorbed by the kidneys. However, in the case of kidney diseases, some products, specifically urea, cannot be removed from the blood by the ...

Artificial Kidney Engineering: The Development of Dialysis Membranes for Blood Purification
Membranes, 2022 The artificial kidney, one of the greatest medical inventions in the 20th century, has saved innumerable lives with end stage renal disease. Designs of artificial kidney evolved dramatically in decades of development.

In Vivo Motion Correction in Super-Resolution Imaging of Rat Kidneys
IEEE Transactions on Ultrasonics, Ferroelectrics and Frequency Control, 2021 Super-resolution (SR) imaging has the potential of visualizing the microvasculature down to the 10- $\mu \text{m}$ level, but motion induced by breathing, heartbeats, and muscle contractions are often significantly above this level.
