Publication number: 20130302290Abstract: Provided herein are methods of treating a kidney injury in a patient, comprising administering to the patient hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) in an amount effective to treat the kidney injury. In some embodiments, administration of the HSCs is delayed, such that the HSCs are not administered immediately after the kidney injury. In certain aspects, the HSCs are administered to the patient during the beginning of the repair phase of the kidney. Further embodiments and aspects of the invention, including related methods and compositions for use therein, are described herein.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 16, 2013Publication date: November 14, 2013Inventors: David L.
