A-to-I RNA editing in kidney tissue from patients with nephrotic syndrome

Key takeaways

This is early lab work on kidney tissue from people with nephrotic syndrome, a disease where the kidney leaks protein. Scientists studied a fine detail of how genes are edited inside cells, grouping nearby edits to spot effects that single-site studies miss. This is basic biology in tissue, not a treatment or a test for patients yet, and it is a preprint.
