Generation of functional podocytes from human induced pluripotent stem cells

Generation of functional podocytes from human induced pluripotent stem cells

Generating human podocytes in vitro could offer a unique opportunity to study human diseases. Here, we describe a simple and efficient protocol for obtaining functional podocytes in vitro from human induced pluripotent stem cells. Cells were exposed to a three-step protocol, which induced their diff...
