... of a failure of nephric duct formation, precluding studies of the role of Lim1 at later stages of kidney development. Here, we show that Lim1 functions in distinct tissue compartments of the developing metanephros for both proper development of the ureteric buds and the patterning of renal vesicles for nephron...

... by failure of mesenchyme to epithelium signaling. In situ hybridizations with Wnt7b , a marker of the metanephric kidney, show that the branching defect was not simply the result of homeotic transformation of metanephros to mesonephros. Absent Bf2 and Gdnf expression in the midventral mesenchyme, findings...

At the earliest stages of metanephros formation, PSA and N-CAM immunostaining was found in both embryonic anlagen, namely the uretic bud and the metanephrogenic mesenchyme. Reactivity in uretic bud derivatives declined during...
