Lineage tracing reveals KSP+ cells as multipotent progenitors driving postnatal renal development and injury repair via notch signaling

Background Progenitor cells generate multiple cells during development and are thought to be involved in tissue repair. The widespread distribution of Kidney-specific cadherin-positive (KSP+) cells in the kidney suggests they play an important role in renal development. However, direct evidence demonstrating that KSP+...
