Researchers Use Calcium Ion Signaling Imaging in Single Kidney Cells to Explore Whole Organ Function

Article title: Quantitative intravital Ca2+ imaging maps single cell behavior to kidney tubular structure

Authors: Joana R. Martins, Dominik Haenni, Milica Bugarski, Andreja Figurek, Andrew M. Hall

From the authors: “We have shown that by leveraging a number of technical advances, it is possible to perform high-resolution and quantitative imaging of Ca2+ signals within single renal epithelial cells in living mice and to map these insights to whole organ architecture.” 

This study is highlighted as one of August’s “best of the best” as part of the American Physiological Society’s APSselect program.
