Since the publication of the first edition of this book in 2010, a remarkable explosion of spectacular discoveries in the field of regeneration has compelled the present revisit of the field of Regenerative Nephrology. This second edition presents a diverse range of topics, including the influence of age and gender on regenerative processes, the mechanisms and pathways of premature cell senescence affecting kidney regeneration, the ways in which intrinsic regenerative processes can be derailed by harmful stressors leading to disease progression, innovative mechanistic and engineering efforts to recreate functional kidney or its constituent parts, the emerging tools of cell reprogramming and reconditioning as promising avenues for future regenerative efforts, and the effects of various biologicals on kidney regeneration. These recent additions to the arsenal of Regenerative Medicine and Nephrology have seamlessly integrated into the second edition of the book. A constellation of the most experienced contributing authors from around the world has come together under the auspices of the second edition to summarize these cutting-edge investigations.
