Human renal epithelial cell plays a critical role in the kidney. In tissue morphogenesis, the formation of tubule is significantly affected by the polarization of renal epithelial cells. It is important to establish and maintain renal epithelial polarity for a normal excretion and resorption. In cases of acute kidney injury, it’s renal epithelial cells rather than human stem cells, that demonstrate a responsive capacity for rapid proliferation to facilitate the repair of injured proximal tubules. Human renal epithelial cells are a heterogeneous population of epithelial cells due to the diverse epithelia in kidney.

FOR RESEARCH USE ONLY
The scientific research of human renal epithelial cells is essential for the engineering strategy of bioartificial kidney. The polarization of human renal epithelium is originated from integrin-mediated cell-matrix adhesion, which responds to matrix stiffness as revealed by the research of cellular mechanobiology. This indicates the possibility of research or application that uses matrix stiffness as a handle for proliferative cells. In the heterogeneous epithelial cells, renal tubule epithelial cells express toll-like receptors (TLRs) and are suggested to respond to bacterial infection and ischemic stress in the innate immune system. The role of TLRs in the kidney could be further investigated using human renal epithelial cells.
