PKHHIGH/CD133+/CD24- RENAL STEM-LIKE CELLS ISOLATED FROM HUMAN NEPHROSPHERES CAN BE COMMITTED TO ENDOTHELIAL PHENOTYPE
Vol 32, Issue 4S1, 2018
Abstract
Nephrosphere (NS) model permits to culture a heterogeneous population of renal stem-like cells(RSC) and progenitors. RSC are the quiescent (PKHhigh) cells with a CD133+/CD24- phenotype. Wedemonstrated that NS cells cultured on decellularized scaffolds repopulated proximal and distal tubularportions, the Bowman’s capsule, and vascular portions differentiating into endothelial cells. We now aimto evaluate the capacity of endothelial commitment of RSC isolated from human NS.
