#BasicResearch in #ASNKidney360 demonstrates that urinary phosphate may actively contribute to PKD progression. Higher phosphate levels were shown to accelerate cyst growth, activate fibrosis, and form calcium‑phosphate microcrystals in both mouse models and human PKD kidneys. kidney.pub/KID1149

When a transplant patient shows signs of kidney dysfunction, doctors must quickly determine if the body is attacking the organ and, if so, how. New #basicresearch in #ASNJASN provides the "instruction manual" for ensuring the B-HOT panel delivers a clear, actionable answer. kidney.pub/JASN1107

@MuellerRom Congratulations!

I usually think twice before posting preprints. But this time it’s different. MEDA-PKD is the essence of our work over more than a decade — and, to me, one of the most meaningful contributions I’ve been able to make to biomedical research. 🧵

@JonathanNefro @rafavaldeznefro Too bad- systemic arterial hypertension is too often blamed as a cause of CKD- in later stages (stage 4 and 5 ) it can accelerate the loss of nephron- but in earlier stages it is mostly a biomarker of underling nephron deficiency (the Brenner doctrine ).

@staruschenko @MLGumz @APSPhysiology @OPalygin @Renal_Phys @c_a_klemens Congratulations!!!

Happy to share my #APS2026 @APSPhysiology Bodil Schmidt-Nielsen Distinguished Mentor and Scientist award with all my trainees. Thanks to @OPalygin @Renal_Phys @c_a_klemens and all other trainees who nominated me and everyone who attended the lecture.

🗞️📸🌟🤩Beautiful work led by @BernhardDumoul1 with the team builds a single cell spatial atlas of human DKD using Xenium + CosMx + snRNA-seq. @Nature This is not incremental. This is a new layer of pathology. Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is still treated as one disease. That is the problem. Patients look similar clinically but behave very differently. We asked: is there a biologically distinct subgroup we are missing? rdcu.be/ff6ZZ

@NephroP @ArgaizR @nephrothaniel Thank you for a fantastic chapter. Great images and video links. Nephrology POCUS has arrived!

A milestone moment for #Nephrology‼️ For the first time, a multi-organ #POCUS chapter finds its place in Brenner & Rector’s "The Kidney", the book many of us grew up calling the bible of nephrology. Truly special to be part of this moment with @ArgaizR and @nephrothaniel. Couldn’t have asked for better colleagues to share this journey with 🎉 Feels like an inflection point. #POCUS in nephrology is no longer confined to kidney #ultrasound. Grateful to @AlanYuNeph, @valerie_luyckx and the entire editorial team for the trust in us.

Big moment for #Nephrology. Seeing multi-organ #POCUS formally enter Brenner & Rector’s The Kidney really does feel like an inflection point, not just a chapter, but a shift in how we think about kidney care. Kudos to everyone involved… especially the IAPN co-founders 🙂👏

It was my honor to present the phase 1b trial results of Farabursen in ADPKD at WCN @ISNkidneycare

Congratulations to Dr. Ronald Gansevoort for receiving the @ISNkidneycare Kaplan 2026 @PKDFoundation award! So so well deserved for 2 decades of amazing work! Award presented by Dr Chris Chen, VP research @PKDFoundation #WCN #WCN26

@fouadchebib @C_HannaMD @ndahl48 Excellent chapter. Thanks Fouad!

Proud to contribute to the new edition of Brenner and Rector’s The Kidney. Cystic kidney diseases remain a rapidly evolving space—this chapter brings together current biology, genetics, and clinical care in a field that continues to move forward. @C_HannaMD @ndahl48 @MayoClinicNeph Thank you @valerie_luyckx and @AlanYuNeph for your tremendous efforts in editing this book
