[3PS-06]【E】Understanding the Diverse Functions and Pathophysiology of the Kidney and Blood Pressure Through Cutting-Edge Research

Fri. Dec 5, 2025 2:20 PM - 4:20 PM JST
Fri. Dec 5, 2025 5:20 AM - 7:20 AM UTC

Room 6(Pacifico Yokohama Conference Center 3F, 311+312)

Organizer: Takafumi Toyohara (Tohoku University Hospital), Kengo Azushima (Yokohama City University)

The kidney has the highest blood flow per unit weight in the body and serves vital roles beyond waste excretion, including blood pressure regulation and endocrine function. The pathophysiology of kidney diseases is complex, involving fluid dynamics, hypertension, and inflammation. Advances in single-cell omics and patient-derived iPS cells have clarified renal regeneration, and novel researches of mechanobiology and humoral regulation have advanced the understanding of hypertension. This symposium will share the latest findings and therapeutic prospects.
