- 2023.2.24 | Metabolic HealthTNO scientists (Arianne van Koppen, Reinout Stoop and Robert Ostendorf) will attend the 5th Chronic Kidney Disease Drug Development Summit in Boston on March 8 and 9. We are looking forward to meet the experts in this field to explore options for collaborative programs in gaining more knowledge on the pathway and mechanisms using TNO's model of diabetic kidney disease (DKD). This is an advanced translational diet-induced hypertension-accelerated mouse model of DKD with shows hyperfiltration followed by a steady decline in renal function (GFR), albuminuria, pronounced glomerulosclerosis and tubulo-interstitial atrophy and fibrosis. The model is sensitive to SoC treatment (ACEi and SGLT2i). Additionally, the model shows left ventricle hypertrophy and cardiac fibrosis suggesting HFpEF.

- 2021.12.10 | DMPK Publication on the Intestinal Explant Barrier Chip (IEBC) became available on line. The wells-plate or microfluidic chip setup allows monitoring many processes that take part at the gut wall, such as transport, barrier function, metabolic activity, hormone secretion, and the inflammatory response. Special attention will be paid to the possibility to study the impact of your compound on the gut tissue as well as on the interaction of the gut wall with the microbiome.
