Engineered Kidney Could Enable Early Detection of Drug Toxicity

  • Scientists have engineered a kidney that could enable early detection of drug toxicity.
  • The kidney is made up of human kidney organoids, which are 3D mini organs developed from stem cells.
  • The engineered kidney can detect how drugs interact with the body and their effects on the kidneys.
  • This could lead to more effective and safer drugs in the future.
