To support advances in the understanding of pathophysiology and therapies of kidney diseases by creating a BioBank of kidney tissue, DNA, plasma, and urine from patients with kidney diseases.
A biorepository of human samples to support research to advance understanding of human kidney diseases will be created. Clinically, kidney diseases are detected by blood and urine laboratory tests. However, the underlying cause of kidney disease is often not clear on blood and urine tests. In such cases, a clinician may choose to perform a kidney biopsy to establish the diagnosis. Patients who are scheduled to undergo a kidney biopsy will be invited to participate in this proposed study.
Inclusion Criteria: * Patients scheduled to undergo a clinically indicated kidney biopsy * English or Spanish speaking Exclusion Criteria: * Under 18 years or age * Known pregnancy * Additional vulnerable individuals (incarcerated, institutionalized, or otherwise unable to participate in the study) * Inability to provide informed consent
