Architectural patterns in branching morphogenesis in the kidney
1 Jan 1998
Abstract excerpt
During kidney development, several discrete steps generate its three-dimensional pattern including specific branch types, regional differential growth of stems, the specific axes of growth and temporal progression of the pattern. The ureteric bud undergoes three different types of branching. In the first, terminal bifid type, a lateral branch arises and immediately bifurcates to form two terminal branches whose...
