Normal Human Kidney Cortical Cells (NhKC)
$695.00 – $698.00
Normal Human Kidney Cortical cells (NhKC) are isolated from the kidney cortex after removal of the kidney capsule and medulla.
The cell composition is a heterogeneous population of cells composed by different types of cells. The major type of cells that can be identified are:
- Proximal tubules
- Distal tubules
- Endothelial cells (including glomerular endothelial cells)
- Mesangial cells
- Podocytes
- Interstitial fibroblast
- Residing renal adult progenitor cells
- Juxtaglomerular cells
Other than the adult progenitor cells, the NhKC are terminally differentiated.

WARNING: Primary human cell products are derived from whole human organs, thus should be treated as potentially infectious. Blood samples from the donor are tested and found non-reactive using FDA approved test kits in CLIA certified labs and are testing for the presence of HIV-I/II, Hepatitis B Virus and Hepatitis C Virus. In some cases, but not all, HTLV-1 and 2 are tested and reported.
Test results do not offer complete assurance that HIV-I/II, Hepatitis B Virus, and Hepatitis C Virus are absent. All human sourced products should be handled at the appropriate Biological Safety Level in order to minimize exposure of potentially infectious products.
