Abstract

Regenerative medicine is an area of intense excitement and potential. Despite the increasing rate of end-stage renal disease, dialysis and transplantation remain the only treatment options to date. However, there is hope that stem cells and regenerative medicine may procure additional therapeutic options for renal disease. Such new treatment options may include induction of repair using endogenous or exogenous stem cells or the reprogramming of the kidney to reinitiate development. This chapter reviews the current state of understanding with respect to stem cell functions in the kidney, regenerative principles in kidney diseases, as well as clinical implications and implementation of regenerative medicine in renal disease.
