Abstract excerpt
Understanding of cellular transdifferentiation is limited by the technical inability to track multiple lineages in vivo. To overcome this we developed a new tool to simultaneously fate map two distinct cell types in the kidney, and genetically test whether cells of renin lineage (CoRL) can transdifferentiate to a podocyte fate. Ren1cCreER/tdTomato/Nphs1-FLPo/FRT-EGFP mice (CoRL-PODO mice) were generated by...
