Single-cell RNA sequencing reveals the mesangial identity and species diversity of glomerular cell transcriptomes

The molecular identity of renal glomerular cells is poorly characterized and rodent glomerulopathy models translate poorly to humans. Here, the authors show molecular signatures of glomerulus-associated cells using single cell RNA sequencing and highlight differences between mouse and human cells.
