Abstract:
Disclosed are methods of assessing the ability of a candidate therapeutic agent to reverse, reduce or prevent renal injury by a potential toxic agent using a three-dimensional, engineered, bioprinted, biological renal tubule model. Also disclosed are methods of assessing the effect of an agent on renal function, the method comprising contacting the agent with a three-dimensional, engineered, bioprinted, biological renal tubule model. Also disclosed are models of renal disorder. In one embodiment, disclosed are models of renal fibrosis, comprising a three-dimensional, engineered, bioprinted, biological renal tubule model. Also disclosed are methods of making the model of renal disorder. In one embodiment disclosed are methods of making the model of renal fibrosis comprising contacting a three-dimensional, engineered, bioprinted, biological renal tubule model with an agent that is capable of inducing interstitial fibrotic tissue formation.
