abstract of the disclosure a novel renal cell precursor is identified from kidney tissue. the cell is multipotent capable of forming renal epithelial and endothelial tissues. the cell can be amplified in culture and maintains stemness over multiple passages. this cell fulfills a major unmet need as a cell-based source for kidney regeneration or repair. treatment of kidney diseases and disorders (e.g., glomerular diseases and acute tubular necrosis) may be improved thereby. abstract of patent summary: "kidney stem cells isolated from the kidney". A new renal precursor cell is identified from kidney tissue. The cell is multipotent capable of forming renal epithelial and endothelial tissues. The cell can be amplified in culture and retains its characteristics after several passages. This cell fulfills most of the unmet need as a cell-based source for regeneration or renal repair. Treatment of kidney disease and disorders (eg, glomerulopathies and acute tubular necrosis) can be improved in this way.abstract of the disclosure a novel renal precursor cell is identified from kidney tissue. the cell is multipotent capable of forming renal epithelial and endothelial tissues. the cell can be amplified in culture and maintains stemness over multiple passages. this cell fulfills a major unmet need as a cell-based source for kidney regeneration or repair. treatment of kidney diseases and disorders (e.g., glomerularpathies and acute tubular necrosis) may be improved thereby. tradução do resumo resumo patente de invenção: "células-tronco renais isoladas do rim". uma nova célula precursora renal é identificada a partir de tecido de rim. a célula é multipotente capaz de formar tecidos epiteliais e endoteliais renais. a célula pode ser amplificada em cultura e mantém suas características após várias passagens. esta célula cumpre a maior parte da necessidade não atendida como uma fonte baseada em células de regeneração ou reparo renal. tratamento de doenças e distúrbios renais (por ex
