Abstract

Noninvasive methods for obtaining intrarenal information are required to understand the mechanism of acute kidney injury (AKI). Klocke etal. explored the feasibility of using urinary single-cell RNA sequencing in assessing human AKI. Urine samples from patients with AKI included tubular epithelial cells with injury-related dedifferentiation and adaptive phenotypes, which could reflect kidney tissue damage. Thus, urinary single-cell RNA sequencing would provide new insights into human AKI, leading to the identification of novel biomarkers and therapeutic targets.
