Research on the Rat Renal Pericytes is essential to the study of peritubular capillary rarefaction and early fibrotic responses in chronic kidney disease models. The kidneys are two bean-shaped organs responsible for the excretion and regulation of the body's fluids. Its primary functions are filtering blood, removing waste, and excess water to produce urine. Common disorders include nephritis, kidney stones, and kidney failure. The Rat Renal Pericytes are to be used with Rat Renal Pericyte Medium (Cat. No. ACM0260). This product is intended for laboratory in vitro use only. It is not intended for diagnostic, therapeutic, or clinical applications.
