" /> metanephric mesenchyme - CISMeF





Preferred Label : metanephric mesenchyme;

Uberon definition : one of the two embryological structures that give rise to the kidney (the other is the ureteric bud). The metanephric blastema mostly develops into nephrons, but can also form parts of the collecting duct system.[WP]. Metanephric mesenchyme is the tissue made up of loosely connected mesenchymal cells in the metanephros[GO];

Uberon synonym : metanephros associated mesenchyme; metanephric blastema; metanephrogenic mesenchyme; metanephric mesoderm;

Uberon Homology note : When the ureteric buds emerge from the nephric duct, they enter the metanephrogenic mesenchyme. The ureteric buds induce this mesenchymal tissue to condense around them and differentiate into the nephrons of the mammalian kidney. As this mesenchyme differentiates, it tells the ureteric bud to branch and grow.[well established][VHOG];
