Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a complicated disease that involves numerous cell types. Here the authors used a multiomics approach consisting of single nucleus transcriptomes and epigenomes to redefine cell states in ADPKD and to dissect the cellular interactions and molecular mechanisms of ADPKD.
