November 8th 2021 Frogs' anatomy and organ function are strikingly similar to those of humans. An international team at the Institute of Anatomy at UZH, has now exploited this similarity by using a tiny tropical frog called Xenopus tropicalis to model human genetic diseases. The researchers focused on polycystic kidney disease, a congenital and currently … Continue reading What’s frogs got to do with it? Insights into kidney diseases
