Abstract

Background: During nephron induction, morphogenetic molecules are reciprocally exchanged between epithelial and mesenchymal stem/progenitor cells within the renal stem/progenitor cell niche. That these molecules remain concentrated, it is assumed that both cell populations stand in close contact to each other. However, recently published data illustrate that epithelial and mesenchymal cells are ...
