BRN1 commits cells to becoming cells of the Henle's loop and distal tubules. Irx genes, possibly together with BRN1, control the fate of the intermediate tubule cells, which will give rise to the ...

In the seminiferous tubules of the testes, spermatozoa are constantly generated from spermatogonial stem cells through a stereotyped sequence of mitotic and meiotic divisions. The basic physiological ...

To advance the engineering of kidney tubules for future implantation, constructs should be both self-supportive and yet small-sized and highly porous. Here, we hypothesize that the fabrication of ...
