A fate-mapping approach reveals the composite origin of the connecting tubule and alerts on “single-cell”-specific KO model of the distal nephron
1 Sept 2016
Abstract excerpt
The distal nephron is a heterogeneous part of the nephron composed by six different cell types, forming the epithelium of the distal convoluted (DCT), connecting, and collecting duct. To dissect the function of these cells, knockout models specific for their unique cell marker have been created. However, since this part of the nephron develops at the border between the ureteric bud and the metanephric mesenchyme,...
