On the cover: Renal progenitor cells (RPCs) injected into the retroperitoneum of a late-stage mouse embryo developed glomeruli with capillary loops (upper panel). In contrast, glomeruli developed ex vivo from RPC show no capillary structures (lower panel). (Red: endothelial cell marker CD31; white: nephrin; green: transplanted GFP-RPC; blue: DAPI).
