Characterization of the neoprotein MUC1-fs in patient-derived cells with ADTKD-MUC1

Preprint D Not peer reviewed Preclinical

Key takeaways

This study looked at a specific genetic form of kidney disease called ADTKD-MUC1. Researchers grew cells from the urine of several patients in the lab. They studied how a faulty protein builds up in these cells. This is a lab-based study, so it is not a test of a new treatment for people yet.
