R-spondin signalling is essential for the maintenance and differentiation of mouse nephron progenitors

During kidney development, WNT/β-catenin signalling has to be tightly controlled to ensure proliferation and differentiation of nephron progenitor cells. Here, we show in mice that the signalling molecules RSPO1 and RSPO3 act in a functionally redundant manner to permit WNT/β-catenin signalling and...
