pubmed:abstractText
The formation of all organs during embryogenesis, including kidney, is dependent on the timed and sequential expression of a number of polypeptide growth factors. Synthesis and actions of one or more members of the insulin-like growth factor, epidermal growth factor/transforming growth factor-alpha, transforming growth factor-beta, platelet-derived growth factor, fibroblast growth factor, and nerve growth factor families have been characterized in the developing metanephric kidney. Studies originating from a number of laboratories have defined the localization of growth factor mRNAs, receptors and peptides, have delineated patterns of growth factor synthesis, and have established the growth factor dependency of embryonic kidney development. The results of these investigations will be summarized in this editorial review and integrated within the broader context of growth factor cellular physiology and growth factor expression in nonrenal systems.
