Exploring the Spatial Distribution of Interstitial Cells in Kidney Tissue.

Introduction: Interstitial cells are crucial to the development of kidney structure and function, although the mechanism underlying their role in it remains unclear to date. Our previous study identified cell clusters in human fetal kidney tissue, and we further analyzed the interstitial cell cluster within this context.

Methods: We extracted the barcoded cDNA from tissue samples and prepared spatial transcriptome libraries.

Relationship between Monocytes and Stenosis-Related Autologous Arteriovenous Fistula Dysfunction.

Background: Arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is considered to be the best choice of vascular access, but the maturation rate and patency rate of AVF are not satisfactory. Many studies have explored the influencing factors of AVF failure but do not involve the direct relationship between monocyte count and AVF failure. This study aims to explore the relationship between monocyte count and AVF dysfunction related to stenosis.
