The distinction between distal convoluted tubule subsegments has been controversial. This study shows transcriptomic analysis of an enriched rare cell population using a genetically targeted approach clarifies the function & classification of distal cells bit.ly/JASN0297

🎞️First Author Highlight Article🎞️ 🔬 Exciting 🆕 research alert! Check out the latest study "KS-WNK1 is required for the renal response to extreme changes in potassium intake" Jessica Paola Bahena-Lopez* et al. ow.ly/s9KV50QZGBI #AJPRenal Gobierno de México

Our manuscript describing snRNASeq enrichment of the DCT just dropped @JASN. journals.lww.com/jasn/abstract/… 🧵Tweetorial Incoming! TL;DR: The DCT is composed of two distinct cell-types; DCT1 and DCT2.

"...certain cell types essential for kidney functions remain notably understudied." This Editorial discusses a recent study that employed a new targeted single-nucleus RNA-seq method to profile the gene expression in the cells of DCT bit.ly/JASN0330

Such an inspiring person & scientist and one of the best lecturers I have heard!

Huge congrats, David! 🎉 Recipient of the 2024 Berliner Award for Excellence in Renal Physiology! Well-deserved! 🏆 It has truly been an honor and privilege to have you as a mentor! Cheers to renal physiology! 🥂 #JustKidneying🫘 #EllisonLab #APS2024 #WeArePhysiology

¡Qué gran equipo! Gerardo Gamba Paola de los Heros ℓαυяα νєяgαяα💛

Congratulations again to ⁦Gerardo Gamba⁩ for his distinguished lecture of the ⁦American Physiological Society⁩ remal section. An esteemed scholar and gentleman 👏🥂

El INCMNSZ felicita al Dr. Gerardo Gamba Ayala Investigador del Departamento de Nefrología, por ser destinatario de la Cátedra Carl Gottschalk de la Sociedad Americana de Fisiología. Compartimos la editorial publicada en la revista American Journal of Physiology. Gerardo Gamba

Dos de mis previas estudiantes reciben uno de los 20 grants que da la ASN en 2024. Jessica Bahena-Lopez, ahora fellow en Portland y María Castañeda-Bueno, investigadora del INNSZ y la única de los 20 que está fuera de USA. The Molecular Physiology Unit rules!!!!! Departamento de Nefrología y Metabolismo Mineral

Congrats Jess Bahena ! 🙌🏼

Great news for a trainee and a close collaborator! Jessica and Maria, congratulations 🎊

Happy Monday, everyone! How do kidneys adjust to dramatic fluctuations in K intake? Read below to learn about the role of a kidney specific isoform of with-no-lysine kinase (KS-WNK1) in dealing with such changes. journals.physiology.org/doi/full/10.11…

Large library docking identifies positive allosteric modulators of the calcium-sensing receptor | Science Would these new molecules also have risks of hypocalcemia as this is an on target effect of cinacalcet? science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
