abstractText  In vertebrate embryos, the kidney primordium metanephros is formed from two distinct cell lineages, Wolffian duct and metanephric mesenchyme, which were classically grouped as intermediate mesoderm. Whereas the reciprocal interactions between these two cell populations in kidney development have been studied extensively, the mechanisms generating them remain elusive. Here, we show that the mouse cell lineage that forms nephric mesenchyme develops as a subpopulation of Tbx6-expressing mesodermal precursor derivatives of neuro-mesodermal progenitors (NMPs) under the condition of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-signal-dependent Osr1 expression. The Osr1-expressing nephric mesenchyme precursors were confirmed as descendants of NMPs because they were labeled by Sox2 N1 enhancer-EGFP. In Tbx6 mutant embryos, nephric mesenchyme changed its fate into neural tissues, which reflected its NMP origin. In Osr1 mutant embryos, the specific region of the Tbx6-expressing mesoderm precursor, which normally expresses Osr1 and develops into the nephric mesenchyme, instead expressed the somite marker FoxC2. BMP signaling activated Osr1 expression in a region of TBX6-expressing mesoderm and elicited nephric mesenchyme development. This study suggested a new model of cell lineage segregation during gastrulation.
