Active Hedgehog Signaling Regulates Renal Capsule Morphogenesis

The renal capsule is a flattened layer of cells which surround the kidney. Expression of the transcription factor Foxd1 is required for normal development of the capsule. Furthermore, current evidence suggests that during development the capsule progenitors are in a state of active hedgehog signalin...
