Scientific Abstract

Chronic kidney disease represents the fastest growing pathology worldwide. Elucidating new regulators of kidney development and disease will promote the development of strategies for kidney repair. Here we propose to identify how the adhesion G protein-coupling receptor Gpr126 regulates kidney development and which diseases are associated with altered Gpr126 expression in order to design in the future experiments to determine whether Gpr126 inhibition or activation can improve kidney function.
