… Araki et al have found a new gene, metanephros derived tubulogenic factor (MTF), that is
regulated by PKC during kidney development, and this gene appears to be involved in UB …

… These results suggest that metanephric mesenchyme that is not invaded by a ureteric bud
at the beginning of kidney development in mutant embryos undergoes programmed cell death …

… for normal kidney organogenesis. The specific roles of HSPGs and CSPGs on ureteric
bud (… that many proteoglycan core proteins change during kidney development (syndecan-1,2,4, …

… ureteric bud and from the renal stroma, and that epithelial diversification is stimulated by
the ureteric bud … Kidney development in cadherin-6 mutants: Delayed mesenchyme-to-epithelial …

… Proximal-distal nephron polarity is thought to depend on the signals that emanate from the
ureter bud [18]. Besides this, apical-basal polarization of the early RV is needed for lumen …

… These findings indicate that signaling pathways downstream of Ret RTK have distinct roles
in kidney development: PLCγ in ensuring only a single kidney is formed and PI3K/Erk1/2 in …

… In this review, we focus on the growth and transcription factors that define kidney progenitor
cell populations, initiate ureteric bud branching, induce nephron formation within the …

… Renal organogenesis is initiated when the ureteric bud sprouts from the posterior Wolffian
duct … We find that Pbx1 −/− nephric tissues are competent to initiate kidney development since …
