Abstract
Background Distal radius fractures with severely osteoporotic bone or articular comminution can provide challenges to fixation with traditional volar locked plating alone. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical, radiographic, and patient reported outcomes of patients undergoing distal radius fixation with volar locked plating and adjunctive dorsal bridge plating. Methods We retrospectively identified 16 patients with distal radius fractures who underwent our preferred surgical technique for fixation. Patients underwent volar locked plate fixation as well as dorsal bridge fixation at time of surgery. Seven patients were indicated for severe articular comminution with volar rim fragmentation (44%), three patients were revised for nonunion after previous volar locked late fixation (19%), and six patients had severely osteoporotic bone with articular comminution (38%). Two patients (13%) sustained AO/OTA 23-A3 distal radius fracture, two patients (13%) had a 23-B3 fracture, two patients (13%) had a 23-C2 fracture and ten patients (63%) had a 23-C3 fracture. Results The average patient age was 51.8 years ± 20.6. Patients were followed for an average of 12.2±6.3 months. The dorsal bridge plate was removed at an average of 11.1±2.4 weeks. The average post-operative radial inclination was 18.9±2.4°, radial height 12.4 mm ± 2.6 mm, and volar tilt 7.1±1.9°. There were no cases of deep or superficial infection. After dorsal bridge plate removal, patients demonstrated an average wrist extension of 55.3±9.5°, flexion 54.4±12.8°, radial deviation 15.7±3.2°, 25.2±3.9 degrees of ulnar deviation. Conclusion Distal radius fractures in the setting of severely osteoporotic bone, salvage procedures, articular comminution, volar rim fractures, and revision surgery present uniquely difficult surgical challenges. Volar locked plating with adjunctive dorsal bridge plating can be used with good short- and long-term results.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To test the hypothesis that primary osteosynthesis of humeral shaft fractures may lead to more favorable clinical, functional, and patient-reported outcomes than fixation following a trial of nonoperative management. METHODS DESIGN Retrospective Cohort Review. SETTING Academic Level I Trauma Center. PATIENT SELECTION CRITERIA Adult patients who presented with humeral shaft fractures, and ultimately underwent open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) from 05/2011 to 05/2021. Patients who underwent ORIF within 2 weeks of injury were grouped into the primary osteosynthesis cohort, and patients who underwent ORIF >4 weeks from date of injury were grouped into the trial of nonoperative cohort. OUTCOME MEASURES AND COMPARISONS Post-operative complications, elbow arc of motion, time to radiographic union, and patient-reported outcomes were investigated and compared between the primary osteosynthesis and trial of nonoperative management cohorts.Results: 127 patients fit the study criteria, 84 underwent primary osteosynthesis and 43 trialed initial non-operative treatment. No differences were found in patient demographics between the primary osteosynthesis and trial of non-operative management cohorts, including age (53±19 vs. 57±18; p=0.25), sex (39% vs. 44% male, 61% vs. 56% female; p=0.70), and BMI (30±6 vs. 32±9; p=0.38) . The average time to operative intervention in the primary osteosynthesis group was 4 days (0-14 days), and 105 days (28-332 days) in the trial of non-operative treatment group (p<0.01). No differences were found with regards to intra-operative blood loss, total operative time, time to radiographic union (determined using the RUSHu scoring system), or overall complication rates, including primary and secondary radial nerve injuries (P=0.23 and 0.86, respectively). Patients reported similar PROMIS Pain Interference (PI) (P=0.73), Depression (D) (P=0.99), and Physical Function (PF) (P=0.66) scores at their 6-month post-surgical follow up visits. CONCLUSION Patients who attempted a trial of non-operative management for humeral shaft fractures prior to open reduction and internal fixation had similar clinical, functional, and patient reported outcomes as those who underwent primary osteosynthesis. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Prognostic Level III. See Instructions for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.

Abstract
Translocation renal cell carcinoma (tRCC) most commonly involves an ASPSCR1-TFE3 fusion, but molecular mechanisms remain elusive and animal models are lacking. Here, we show that human ASPSCR1-TFE3 driven by Pax8-Cre (a credentialed clear cell RCC driver) disrupted nephrogenesis and glomerular development, causing neonatal death, while the clear cell RCC failed driver, Sglt2-Cre, induced aggressive tRCC (as well as alveolar soft part sarcoma) with complete penetrance and short latency. However, in both contexts, ASPSCR1-TFE3 led to characteristic morphological cellular changes, loss of epithelial markers, and an epithelial-mesenchymal transition. Electron microscopy of tRCC tumors showed lysosome expansion, and functional studies revealed simultaneous activation of autophagy and mTORC1 pathways. Comparative genomic analyses encompassing an institutional human tRCC cohort (including a hitherto unreported SFPQ-TFEB fusion) and a variety of tumorgraft models (ASPSCR1-TFE3, PRCC-TFE3, SFPQ-TFE3, RBM10-TFE3, and MALAT1-TFEB) disclosed significant convergence in canonical pathways (cell cycle, lysosome, and mTORC1) and less established pathways such as Myc, E2F, and inflammation (IL-6/JAK/STAT3, interferon-γ, TLR signaling, systemic lupus, etc.). Therapeutic trials (adjusted for human drug exposures) showed antitumor activity of cabozantinib. Overall, this study provides insight into MiT/TFE-driven tumorigenesis, including the cell of origin, and characterizes diverse mouse models available for research.

Abstract
Background First tarsometatarsal joint arthrodesis is a common procedure performed by podiatrists and orthopedic surgeons. There remains debate on how useful CT scans are in assessing fusion status in the post-operative patient. The purpose of our study was to determine the reliability among both orthopedic surgeons and radiologists in reviewing both postoperative radiographs and CT in order to determine if fusion had occurred in patients undergoing 1st tarsometatarsal arthrodesis. A secondary purpose of this study was to determine if CT offered improved inter- and intra-rater reliability when compared to plain radiographs. Methods Patients who underwent 1st tarsometatarsal arthrodesis were retrospectively reviewed and those who underwent CT post-operatively for persistent pain were identified. Orthopedic surgeons and radiologists then analyzed the radiographs and CT of these patients for union with a threshold for union being set at 50% of the joint being fused. Imaging was then re-evaluated by the same provider 6 months later. Results 24 patients were identified meeting inclusion criteria. Inter-rater reliability and intra-rater reliability for assessment of 1st tarsometatarsal arthrodesis were better with CT compared to radiographs; however, this association was not deemed reliable. Both imaging modalities were not able to assess union status confidently and reliably across reviewers, although CT scan had better intra-rater reliability. Conclusions While CT is frequently used to assess fusion in patients who have underwent 1st tarsometatarsal arthrodesis, it was not found to be better than radiographs. Practitioners should reconsider the use CT as the gold standard when assessing fusion in this population.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The purpose of our study is to analyze the outcomes of traumatic posterolateral elbow dislocations using patient-reported outcomes measurement information system (PROMIS). We hypothesized that physical function (PF) and upper extremity (UE) scores in PROMIS will significantly improve over six months of follow-up and correlate with a positive change in the patient-acceptable symptom state (PASS). METHODS This is a seven-year retrospective study of 165 consecutive adult patients with traumatic posterolateral elbow dislocations. Demographic information, PROMIS PF, PROMIS UE, PROMIS pain interference (PI), PROMIS depression, and PASS were recorded over six months of follow-up. RESULTS At the time of injury, mean PROMIS scores were PF 41.24 (SD 11.16), UE 34.27 (SD 11.87), PI 60.44 (SD 8.07), and depression 49.82 (SD 10.42). At six months, the mean PROMIS scores were PF 39.71 (SD 9.71), UE 33.95 (SD 9.09), PI 57.35 (SD 8.59), and depression 51.43 (SD 10.62). The overall six-month changes in PROMIS scores were PF -1.53, UE -0.32, PI -3.09, and depression +1.61. At the 6-month follow-up, 41.7% responded positively on the PASS, which correlated only with PROMIS PI. CONCLUSIONS Among patients who improved from negative to positive response on PASS, the PROMIS PF, UE, and depression scores did not significantly improve. Only PROMIS PI correlated with PASS at the six-month follow-up; PROMIS PI significantly improved among simple posterolateral elbow dislocation patients at both short-term and long-term follow-up points. PROMIS PF, UE, and depression did not significantly differ between time of injury and short-term and long-term follow-up points.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study is to compare the outcomes of Mason type I radial head fractures. This information will help to provide physicians with a critical decision-making tool when considering non-operative intervention and evaluate Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) as a potentially valuable measure to track outcomes. METHODS We retrospectively identified 527 patients undergoing non-operative intervention. Demographic information, physical exam measurements, patient acceptable symptom state (PASS), and PROMIS Upper Extremity (UE), Physical Function (PF), and Pain Interference (PI) scores were analyzed over 12 months. RESULTS At the initial outpatient post-injury visit (within one week of injury), the average PROMIS PF, UE, PI, and Depression were 42.04 (SD: 6.3), 35.31 (SD: 7.3), 59.18 (SD: 9.2), and 48.68 (SD: 6.8), respectively. The average change in PROMIS PF, UE, PI, and Depression scores from the time of injury to six weeks were -0.23 (p=0.7), 1.43 (p=0.03), -2.1 (p=0.01), and -0.99 (p=0.1). The average change in PROMIS PF, UE, PI, and Depression scores from the time of injury to six months was -0.56 (p=0.56), 1.84 (p<0.001), -1.84 (p<0.001), and -0.13 (p=0.68). Among patients initially reporting "not acceptable" on PASS and reporting "acceptable" at the six-month visit, the average PROMIS PF, UE, PI, and Depression scores were 42.14, 38.91, 56.91, and 47.51 respectively. This represents an average difference of 1.11 (p=0.07), 2.82 (p<0.01), -1.19 (p=0.04), and -1.7 (p=0.01) respectively. CONCLUSION PROMIS UE and PI significantly improved among Mason I radial head fractures treated non-operatively at both six-week and six-month follow-up points but did not meet the mean clinically important difference (MCID) PROMIS PF did not significantly differ between the time of injury, six-week or six-month follow-up points. Only PROMIS UE correlated with PASS at six-week and six-month follow-up. Among patients who improved from negative to positive responses on PASS, PROMIS UE, and PI significantly improved.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The purpose of our study was to compare the 1-year revision surgery rates and outcomes of open versus endoscopic carpal tunnel release. Our hypothesis was that, compared to open release, endoscopic carpal tunnel release was an independent risk factor for revision surgery within 1-year. METHODS This was a retrospective cohort study of 4338 patients undergoing isolated endoscopic or open carpal tunnel release. Demographic data, medical comorbidities, surgical approach, need for revision surgery, hand dominance, history of prior injection, and Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System upper extremity (UE), pain interference (PI) and physical function scores were analyzed. Multivariable analysis was used to identify the risk factors for revision surgery within one year of the index procedure. RESULTS In total, 3280 patients (76%) underwent open and 1058 (24%) underwent endoscopic carpal tunnel release. Within one year of the index procedure, 45 patients required revision carpal tunnel release. The average time to revision was 143 days. The rate of revision carpal tunnel release in the open group was 0.71% compared to 2.08% in the endoscopic group. Multivariable analysis demonstrated that endoscopic surgery, male sex, cubital tunnel syndrome, tobacco use, and diabetes were associated independently with revision surgery. CONCLUSIONS In this study, we found that endoscopic carpal tunnel release was associated independently with a 2.96 times greater likelihood of requiring revision carpal tunnel release within one year, compared to open carpal tunnel release. Male sex, concurrent cubital tunnel syndrome, tobacco use, and diabetes also were associated independently with greater risk of needing revision carpal tunnel release within one year.

Abstract
Vascularization plays a critical role in organ maturation and cell type development. Drug discovery, organ mimicry, and ultimately transplantation in a clinical setting thereby hinges on achieving robust vascularization of in vitro engineered organs. Here, focusing on human kidney organoids, we overcome this hurdle by combining an inducible ETS translocation variant 2 (ETV2) human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line, which directs endothelial fate, with a non-transgenic iPSC line in suspension organoid culture. The resulting human kidney organoids show extensive vascularization by endothelial cells with an identity most closely related to endogenous kidney endothelia. Vascularized organoids also show increased maturation of nephron structures including more mature podocytes with improved marker expression, foot process interdigitation, an associated fenestrated endothelium, and the presence of renin+ cells. The creation of an engineered vascular niche capable of improving kidney organoid maturation and cell type complexity is a significant step forward in the path to clinical translation. Furthermore, this approach is orthogonal to native tissue differentiation paths, hence readily adaptable to other organoid systems and thus has the potential for a broad impact on basic and translational organoid studies.

Abstract
Orthopedic surgery literature utilizes numerous eponyms, and they have become commonplace among orthopedic surgeons and the general public alike. These eponyms can have important historical implications and their history is often overlooked by the physicians using such terms. This paper seeks to specifically explore the origins of eponyms in orthopedic soft tissue diseases involving the upper extremity. Shedding light onto the origin of these eponyms can provide greater respect and understanding of their use in orthopedic surgery today.

Abstract
Avulsion fractures of the extensor carpi ulnaris (ECU) insertion are rare injuries that are poorly described in the literature. Several case reports detail closed ECU ruptures, however, only one previous case report describes an ECU avulsion fracture from the insertion on the fifth metacarpal base in the setting of multiple wrist and hand injuries. To our knowledge, we present the only case report of an isolated ECU avulsion fracture. In our case, a 35-year-old female presented with ulnar-sided wrist pain after forcefully impacting a steering wheel while radially deviating her wrist. She was diagnosed with an ECU avulsion fracture and elected to undergo open repair with a suture button technique. The patient recovered to nearly full strength and range of motion compared to her contralateral side by her eight-week visit. She returned back to work without restrictions after completing hand therapy.

Abstract
The inclusive electron neutrino charged-current cross section is measured in the NOvA near detector using 8.02×10^{20} protons-on-target in the NuMI beam. The sample of GeV electron neutrino interactions is the largest analyzed to date and is limited by ≃17% systematic rather than the ≃7.4% statistical uncertainties. The double-differential cross section in final-state electron energy and angle is presented for the first time, together with the single-differential dependence on Q^{2} (squared four-momentum transfer) and energy, in the range 1 GeV≤E_{ν}<6 GeV. Detailed comparisons are made to the predictions of the GENIE, GiBUU, NEUT, and NuWro neutrino event generators. The data do not strongly favor a model over the others consistently across all three cross sections measured, though some models have especially good or poor agreement in the single differential cross section vs Q^{2}.

Abstract
The mangrove rivulus (Kryptolebias marmoratus) is a phenotypically plastic teleost fish that can spend considerable time on land and traverse the terrestrial realm through a behavior termed the tail-flip jump. The tail-flip jump is a transitional stage between fully aquatic and terrestrial lifestyles. Therefore, understanding this behavior can provide insight into how organisms adapt to new environments over evolutionary time. Studies of K. marmoratus show that terrestrial acclimation and exercise improve tail-flip jumping performance due to muscle remodeling, but the implications of these muscular changes on aquatic locomotion are unknown. In the present study, we hypothesized that 1) terrestrial acclimation and exercise lead to physiological changes, such as changes to muscle fiber type, muscle mass distribution, or body shape, that optimize tail-flip jump distance and endurance while negatively impacting swimming performance in K. marmoratus and 2) plasticity of the brain (which has been demonstrated in response to a variety of stimuli in K. marmoratus) allows terrestrial emersion and exercise to cause behavioral changes that promote survival and long-term reproductive success. To test these hypotheses, we measured the critical swimming speed (Ucrit), tail-flip jump distance, terrestrial endurance, and undisturbed aquatic behavior of age- and size-matched K. marmoratus before and after a terrestrial exercise period. This period consisted of six three-minute exercise sessions spread over 12 days, during which the fish were prompted to jump continuously. To isolate the effects of air exposure, a separate group was exposed to air for an equivalent period but not allowed to jump. Air exposure improved maximum jump distance and negatively affected swimming performance (Ucrit). Terrestrial endurance (number of jumps) improved in the exercised group, but Ucrit showed no significant change. Contrary to our first hypothesis, a trade-off exists between jump distance and Ucrit, but not between jump endurance and Ucrit. Exercised individuals were more active following exercise, resulting either from onset of a dispersion behavior or a heightened stress response.

Abstract
Identification of genes that reliably mark distinct cell types is key to leveraging single-cell RNA sequencing to better understand organismal biology. Such genes are usually chosen by measurement of differential expression between groups of cells and selecting those with the greatest magnitude or most statistically significant change. Many methods have been developed for performing such analyses, but no single, best method has emerged. Validating the results of these analyses is costly in terms of time, effort and resources. We demonstrate that applying an ensemble of such methods robustly identifies genes that mark cells that cluster together and that show restricted expression assessed by antisense mRNA in situ and immunofluorescence. This technique is easily extensible to any number of differential expression methods and the inclusion of additional methods is expected to result in further improvement in performance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The embryonic renal stroma consists of multiple molecularly distinct cell subpopulations, the functional significance of which is largely unknown. Previous work has demonstrated that the transcription factors YAP and TAZ play roles in the development and morphogenesis of the nephrons, collecting ducts, and nephron progenitor cells. METHODS In embryonic mouse kidneys, we identified a subpopulation of stromal cells with enriched activity in YAP and TAZ. To evaluate the function of these cell types, we genetically ablated both Yap and Taz from the stromal progenitor population and examined how gene activity and development of YAP/TAZ mutant kidneys are affected over a developmental time course. RESULTS We found that YAP and TAZ are active in a subset of renal interstitium and that stromal-specific coablation of YAP/TAZ disrupts cortical fibroblast, pericyte, and myofibroblast development, with secondary effects on peritubular capillary differentiation. We also demonstrated that the transcription factor SRF cooperates with YAP/TAZ to drive expression of at least a subset of renal myofibroblast target genes and to specify myofibroblasts but not cortical fibroblasts or pericytes. CONCLUSIONS These findings reveal a critical role for YAP/TAZ in specific embryonic stromal cells and suggest that interaction with cofactors, such as SRF, influence the expression of cell type-specific target genes, thus driving stromal heterogeneity. Further, this work reveals functional roles for renal stroma heterogeneity in creating unique microenvironments that influence the differentiation and maintenance of the renal parenchyma.

Abstract
This Letter reports results from the first long-baseline search for sterile antineutrinos mixing in an accelerator-based antineutrino-dominated beam. The rate of neutral-current interactions in the two NOvA detectors, at distances of 1 and 810 km from the beam source, is analyzed using an exposure of 12.51×10^{20} protons-on-target from the NuMI beam at Fermilab running in antineutrino mode. A total of 121 of neutral-current candidates are observed at the far detector, compared to a prediction of 122±11(stat.)±15(syst.) assuming mixing only between three active flavors. No evidence for ν[over ¯]_{μ}→ν[over ¯]_{s} oscillation is observed. Interpreting this result within a 3+1 model, constraints are placed on the mixing angles θ_{24}<25° and θ_{34}<32° at the 90% C.L. for 0.05 eV^{2}≤Δm_{41}^{2}≤0.5 eV^{2}, the range of mass splittings that produces no significant oscillations at the near detector. These are the first 3+1 confidence limits set using long-baseline accelerator antineutrinos.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end stage renal disease (ESRD) are increasingly frequent and devastating conditions that have driven a surge in the need for kidney transplantation. A stark shortage of organs has fueled interest in generating viable replacement tissues ex vivo for transplantation. One promising approach has been self-organizing organoids, which mimic developmental processes and yield multicellular, organ-specific tissues. However, a recognized roadblock to this approach is that many organoid cell types fail to acquire full maturity and function. Here, we comprehensively assess the vasculature in two distinct kidney organoid models as well as in explanted embryonic kidneys. Using a variety of methods, we show that while organoids can develop a wide range of kidney cell types, as previously shown, endothelial cells (ECs) initially arise but then rapidly regress over time in culture. Vasculature of cultured embryonic kidneys exhibit similar regression. By contrast, engraftment of kidney organoids under the kidney capsule results in the formation of a stable, perfused vasculature that integrates into the organoid. This work demonstrates that kidney organoids offer a promising model system to define the complexities of vascular-nephron interactions, but the establishment and maintenance of a vascular network present unique challenges when grown ex vivo.

Misregulation of the Hippo/Warts pathway is frequently reported in RCC, suggesting a role in disease formation/progression. Paradoxically, misregulation of this pathway is also observed in non-tumorigenic kidney diseases, raising questions as to its specific role in RCC. Here, we show that ablation of the Warts kinases Lats1 and Lats2 in mature renal epithelia was sufficient to cause metastatic RCC in mice. Distinct tumors with sarcomatoid histology were present in mutant kidneys 3 months after genetic ablation. Tumor formation required the downstream effectors Yap and Taz, and treatment with verteporfin, a drug that inhibits Yap activity, could slow progression of the disease. Examination of human tissues showed that among histological subtypes of RCC, nuclear YAP was most commonly observed in sarcomatoid RCC. However, analysis of transcriptomic data from human RCC revealed a unique subset with a molecular signature that closely resembled the transcriptome of Lats, mutants. Together, these findings show that misregulation of the Warts pathway is sufficient to drive renal tumor formation in mice and suggest that human tumors with active YAP may represent a unique subset of RCCs that can be therapeutically targeted

Abstract
Background Cross-education refers to increased motor output (i.e., force generation, skill) of the opposite, untrained limb following a period of unilateral exercise training. Despite extensive research, several aspects of the transfer phenomenon remain controversial. Methods A modified two-round Delphi online survey was conducted among international experts to reach consensus on terminology, methodology, mechanisms of action, and translational potential of cross-education, and to provide a framework for future research. Results Through purposive sampling of the literature, we identified 56 noted experts in the field, of whom 32 completed the survey, and reached consensus (75% threshold) on 17 out of 27 items. Conclusion Our consensus-based recommendations for future studies are that (1) the term ‘cross-education’ should be adopted to refer to the transfer phenomenon, also specifying if transfer of strength or skill is meant; (2) functional magnetic resonance imaging, short-interval intracortical inhibition and interhemispheric inhibition appear to be promising tools to study the mechanisms of transfer; (3) strategies which maximize cross-education, such as high-intensity training, eccentric contractions, and mirror illusion, seem worth being included in the intervention plan; (4) study protocols should be designed to include at least 13–18 sessions or 4–6 weeks to produce functionally meaningful transfer of strength, and (5) cross-education could be considered as an adjuvant treatment particularly for unilateral orthopedic conditions and sports injuries. Additionally, a clear gap in views emerged between the research field and the purely clinical field. The present consensus statement clarifies relevant aspects of cross-education including neurophysiological, neuroanatomical, and methodological characteristics of the transfer phenomenon, and provides guidance on how to improve the quality and usability of future cross-education studies.

Abstract
Schwannomas are tumors of the Schwann cells that cause chronic pain, numbness, and potentially life-threatening impairment of vital organs. Despite the identification of causative genes, including NF2 (Merlin), INI1/SMARCB1, and LZTR1, the exact molecular mechanism of schwannoma development is still poorly understood. Several studies have identified Merlin as a key regulator of the Hippo, MAPK, and PI3K signaling pathways; however, definitive evidence demonstrating the importance of these pathways in schwannoma pathogenesis is absent. Here, we provide direct genetic evidence that dysregulation of the Hippo pathway in the Schwann cell lineage causes development of multiple schwannomas in mice. We found that canonical Hippo signaling through the effectors YAP/TAZ is required for schwannomagenesis and that MAPK signaling modifies schwannoma formation. Furthermore, cotargeting YAP/TAZ transcriptional activity and MAPK signaling demonstrated a synergistic therapeutic effect on schwannomas. Our new model provides a tractable platform to dissect the molecular mechanisms underpinning schwannoma formation and the role of combinatorial targeted therapy in schwannoma treatment. Canonical Hippo signaling through the effectors YAP/TAZ is required for the development of peripheral nervous system tumors of Schwann cells, and MAPK signaling modifies schwannoma formation.

Abstract
We report the final measurement of the neutrino oscillation parameters Δm_{32}^{2} and sin^{2}θ_{23} using all data from the MINOS and MINOS+ experiments. These data were collected using a total exposure of 23.76×10^{20} protons on target producing ν_{μ} and ν[over ¯]_{μ} beams and 60.75 kt yr exposure to atmospheric neutrinos. The measurement of the disappearance of ν_{μ} and the appearance of ν_{e} events between the Near and Far detectors yields |Δm_{32}^{2}|=2.40_{-0.09}^{+0.08}(2.45_{-0.08}^{+0.07})×10^{-3} eV^{2} and sin^{2}θ_{23}=0.43_{-0.04}^{+0.20}(0.42_{-0.03}^{+0.07}) at 68% C.L. for normal (inverted) hierarchy.

Abstract
Kidney formation requires the coordinated growth of multiple cell types including the collecting ducts, nephrons, vasculature and interstitium. There is a long-held belief that interactions between progenitors of the collecting ducts and nephrons are primarily responsible for kidney development. However, over the last several years, it has become increasingly clear that multiple aspects of kidney development require signaling from the interstitium. How the interstitium orchestrates these various roles is poorly understood. Here, we show that during development the interstitium is a highly heterogeneous patterned population of cells that occupies distinct positions correlated to the adjacent parenchyma. Our analysis indicates that the heterogeneity is not a mere reflection of different stages in a linear developmental trajectory but instead represents several novel differentiated cell states. Further, we find that β-catenin has a cell autonomous role in the development of a medullary subset of the interstitium and that this non-autonomously affects the development of the adjacent epithelia. These findings suggest the intriguing possibility that the different interstitial subtypes may create microenvironments that play unique roles in development of the adjacent epithelia and endothelia.

Abstract
Searches for electron antineutrino, muon neutrino, and muon antineutrino disappearance driven by sterile neutrino mixing have been carried out by the Daya Bay and MINOS+ collaborations. This Letter presents the combined results of these searches, along with exclusion results from the Bugey-3 reactor experiment, framed in a minimally extended four-neutrino scenario. Significantly improved constraints on the θ_{μe} mixing angle are derived that constitute the most constraining limits to date over five orders of magnitude in the mass-squared splitting Δm_{41}^{2}, excluding the 90% C.L. sterile-neutrino parameter space allowed by the LSND and MiniBooNE observations at 90% CL_{s} for Δm_{41}^{2}<13 eV^{2}. Furthermore, the LSND and MiniBooNE 99% C.L. allowed regions are excluded at 99% CL_{s} for Δm_{41}^{2}<1.6 eV^{2}.

Abstract
Abstract
The neurocutaneous tumor predisposition disorder neurofibromatosis Type I (NF1) results from deregulation of RAS signaling in the MAPK pathway that leads to a wide spectrum of clinical presentations. Dermal or cutaneous neurofibromas (cNF), a Schwann cell tumor in the skin, affect more than 95% of individuals with NF1 and are a major source of emotional, physical, and social distress as NF1 patients can have thousands of these tumors covering most of their skin. Thus, patients with NF1 often identify these tumors as their greatest burden. To date, there is no available medical treatment for cNF and no known way to prevent them from developing. The major barriers that impede progress in this field are the lack of accurate models of these common cNF tumors for drug evaluation and a limited understanding of their pathogenesis as well as the identity of specific cell of origin that directly gives rise to cNF and signaling pathways essential for tumor development. We take advantage of genetic labeling for cell lineage tracing to identify mouse neural crest Cre lines that are expressed in the subpopulation of Schwann cell lineage that give rise to cNF when NF1 is deleted. We discovered that the Homeobox B7 transcription factor serves as the lineage marker to trace the developmental origin of cNF neoplastic cells that completely recapitulates human neurofibromatosis, generating a novel mouse model that spontaneously develops both cutaneous and plexiform neurofibroma. In addition, we discovered that modulation of the Hippo pathway acts as a modifier that enhances the MAPK pathway activation by NF1 loss to promote neurofibromagenesis, suggesting that dampening the Hippo pathway may serve as part of the comprehensive treatment approach for neurofibroma. This novel mouse model has begun to yield vital clues to neurofibroma pathogenesis and now opens the doors for deciphering the evolution of cNF to identify effective therapies, where none exist today.

Abstract
Wilms' tumor (WT) morphologically resembles the embryonic kidney, consisting of blastema, epithelial and stromal components, suggesting tumors arise from the dysregulation of normal development. β-Catenin activation is observed in a significant proportion of WTs; however, much remains to be understood about how it contributes to tumorigenesis. Although activating β-catenin mutations are observed in both blastema and stromal components of WT, current models assume that activation in the blastemal lineage is causal. Paradoxically, studies performed in mice suggest that activation of β-catenin in the nephrogenic lineage results in loss of nephron progenitor cell (NPC) renewal, a phenotype opposite to WT. Here, we show that activation of β-catenin in the stromal lineage non-autonomously prevents the differentiation of NPCs. Comparisons of the transcriptomes of kidneys expressing an activated allele of β-catenin in the stromal or nephron progenitor cells reveals that human WT more closely resembles the stromal-lineage mutants. These findings suggest that stromal β-catenin activation results in histological and molecular features of human WT, providing insights into how alterations in the stromal microenvironment may play an active role in tumorigenesis.

Abstract
A fundamental challenge in emulating kidney tissue formation through directed differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells is that kidney development is iterative, and to reproduce the asynchronous mix of differentiation states found in the fetal kidney we combined cells differentiated at different times in the same organoid. Asynchronous mixing promoted nephrogenesis, and heterochronic organoids were well vascularized when engrafted under the kidney capsule. Micro-CT and injection of a circulating vascular marker demonstrated that engrafted kidney tissue was connected to the systemic circulation by 2 weeks after engraftment. Proximal tubule glucose uptake was confirmed, but despite these promising measures of graft function, overgrowth of stromal cells prevented long-term study. We propose that this is a technical feature of the engraftment procedure rather than a specific shortcoming of the directed differentiation because kidney organoids derived from primary cells and whole embryonic kidneys develop similar stromal overgrowth when engrafted under the kidney capsule. Ashwani Gupta et al. report an improved protocol for kidney organoid differentiation from pluripotent stem cells. The authors simulate the condition of the fetal kidney by mixing cells differentiated at different times from the same organoid, thereby promoting nephrogenesis in vitro and vascularization after engraftment under the kidney capsule in mice.

Abstract
Rubidium Rydberg atoms in either |m_{j}| sublevel of the 36p_{3/2} state can exchange energy via Stark-tuned Förster resonances, including two-, three-, and four-body dipole-dipole interactions. Three-body interactions of this type were first reported and categorized by Faoro et al. [Nat. Commun. 6, 8173 (2015)NCAOBW2041-172310.1038/ncomms9173] and their Borromean nature was confirmed by Tretyakov et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 119, 173402 (2017)PRLTAO0031-900710.1103/PhysRevLett.119.173402]. We report the time dependence of the N-body Förster resonance N×36p_{3/2,|m_{j}|=1/2}→36s_{1/2}+37s_{1/2}+(N-2)×36p_{3/2,|m_{j}|=3/2}, for N=2, 3, and 4, by measuring the fraction of initially excited atoms that end up in the 37s_{1/2} state as a function of time. The essential features of these interactions are captured in an analytical model that includes only the many-body matrix elements and neighboring atom distribution. A more sophisticated simulation reveals the importance of beyond-nearest-neighbor interactions and of always-resonant interactions.

Abstract
The NOvA experiment has seen a 4.4σ signal of ν[over ¯]_{e} appearance in a 2 GeV ν[over ¯]_{μ} beam at a distance of 810 km. Using 12.33×10^{20} protons on target delivered to the Fermilab NuMI neutrino beamline, the experiment recorded 27 ν[over ¯]_{μ}→ν[over ¯]_{e} candidates with a background of 10.3 and 102 ν[over ¯]_{μ}→ν[over ¯]_{μ} candidates. This new antineutrino data are combined with neutrino data to measure the parameters |Δm_{32}^{2}|=2.48_{-0.06}^{+0.11}×10^{-3} eV^{2}/c^{4} and sin^{2}θ_{23} in the ranges from (0.53-0.60) and (0.45-0.48) in the normal neutrino mass hierarchy. The data exclude most values near δ_{CP}=π/2 for the inverted mass hierarchy by more than 3σ and favor the normal neutrino mass hierarchy by 1.9σ and θ_{23} values in the upper octant by 1.6σ.

Abstract
Lineage tracing has resulted in fundamental discoveries in kidney development and disease and remains a powerful technique to study mechanisms of organogenesis, homeostasis, and repair/regeneration. Following decades of research on the cellular and molecular regulation of renal organogenesis, the kidney has become one of the most well-characterized organs, resulting in exciting advancements in pluripotent stem cell differentiation, tissue bioengineering, and the potential for developing novel regenerative therapies for kidney disease. Lineage tracing, or the labeling of progeny cells arising from a single cell or group of cells, allows for spatial and temporal analyses of dynamic in vivo and in vitro processes. As lineage tracing techniques expand across disciplines of developmental biology, stem cell biology, and regenerative medicine, careful experimental design and interpretation, along with an understanding of the basic principles and technical limitations, are essential for utilizing genetically complex lineage tracing models to further understand kidney development and disease.

Abstract
The Hippo pathway directs cell differentiation during organogenesis, in part by restricting proliferation. How Hippo signaling maintains a proliferation-differentiation balance in developing tissues via distinct molecular targets is only beginning to be understood. Our study makes the unexpected finding that Hippo suppresses nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NFκB) signaling in pancreatic progenitors to permit cell differentiation and epithelial morphogenesis. We find that pancreas-specific deletion of the large tumor suppressor kinases 1 and 2 (Lats1/2PanKO) from mouse progenitor epithelia results in failure to differentiate key pancreatic lineages: acinar, ductal, and endocrine. We carried out an unbiased transcriptome analysis to query differentiation defects in Lats1/2PanKO. This analysis revealed increased expression of NFκB activators, including the pantetheinase vanin1 (Vnn1). Using in vivo and ex vivo studies, we show that VNN1 activates a detrimental cascade of processes in Lats1/2PanKO epithelium, including (1) NFκB activation and (2) aberrant initiation of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), which together disrupt normal differentiation. We show that exogenous stimulation of VNN1 or NFκB can trigger this cascade in wild-type (WT) pancreatic progenitors. These findings reveal an unexpected requirement for active suppression of NFκB by LATS1/2 during pancreas development, which restrains a cell-autonomous deleterious transcriptional program and thereby allows epithelial differentiation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE 3D high-resolution black-blood MRI or MR vessel wall imaging allows evaluation of the intracranial arterial wall and extraluminal pathology. We investigated the diagnostic accuracy and reliability of black-blood MRI for the intraluminal detection of large-vessel arterial occlusions. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively identified patients with intracranial arterial occlusions, confirmed by CTA or DSA, who also underwent 3D black-blood MRI with nonenhanced and contrast-enhanced T1 sampling perfection with application-optimized contrasts by using different flip angle evolution (T1 SPACE) sequences. Black-blood MRI findings were evaluated by 2 independent and blinded neuroradiologists. Large-vessel intracranial arterial segments were graded on a 3-point scale (grades 0-2) for intraluminal baseline T1 hyperintensity and contrast enhancement. Vessel segments were considered positive for arterial occlusion if focal weak (grade 1) or strong (grade 2) T1-hyperintense signal and/or enhancement replaced the normal intraluminal black-blood signal. RESULTS Thirty-one patients with 38 intracranial arterial occlusions were studied. The median time interval between black-blood MRI and CTA/DSA reference standard studies was 2 days (range, 0-20 days). Interobserver agreement was good for T1 hyperintensity (κ = 0.63) and excellent for contrast enhancement (κ = 0.89). High sensitivity (100%) and specificity (99.8%) for intracranial arterial occlusion diagnosis was observed with either intraluminal T1 hyperintensity or contrast-enhancement imaging criteria on black-blood MRI. Strong grade 2 intraluminal enhancement was maintained in >80% of occlusions irrespective of location or chronicity. Relatively increased strong grade 2 intraluminal T1 hyperintensity was noted in chronic/incidental versus acute/subacute occlusions (45.5% versus 12.5%, P = .04). CONCLUSIONS Black-blood MRI with or without contrast has high diagnostic accuracy and reliability in evaluating intracranial large-vessel arterial occlusions with near-equivalency to DSA and CTA.

Abstract
Transfer, in which capability acquired in one situation influences performance in another is considered, along with retention, as demonstrative of effectual learning. In this regard, interlimb transfer of functional capacity has commanded particular attention as a means of gauging the generalisation of acquired capability. Both theoretical treatments and prior empirical studies suggest that the successful accomplishment of a physical training regime is required to bring about generalised changes that extend to the untrained limb. In the present study, we pose the following question: Does interlimb transfer occur if and only if the training movements are executed? We report findings from JG-an individual recruited to a larger scale trial, who presented with (unilateral) deficits of motor control. We examined whether changes in the performance of the untrained right limb arose following practice undertaken by the impaired left limb, wherein the majority of JG's attempts to execute the training task were unsuccessful. Comparison was made with a group of "control" participants drawn from the main trial, who did not practice the task. For JG, substantial gains in the performance of the untrained limb (registered 3 days, 10 days and 1 year following training) indicated that effective learning had occurred. Learning was, however, expressed principally when the unimpaired (i.e. untrained) limb was utilised to perform the task. When the impaired limb was used, marked deficiencies in movement execution remained prominent throughout.

Abstract
A search for mixing between active neutrinos and light sterile neutrinos has been performed by looking for muon neutrino disappearance in two detectors at baselines of 1.04 and 735 km, using a combined MINOS and MINOS+ exposure of 16.36×10^{20} protons on target. A simultaneous fit to the charged-current muon neutrino and neutral-current neutrino energy spectra in the two detectors yields no evidence for sterile neutrino mixing using a 3+1 model. The most stringent limit to date is set on the mixing parameter sin^{2}θ_{24} for most values of the sterile neutrino mass splitting Δm_{41}^{2}>10^{-4} eV^{2}.

Abstract
Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a cancer predisposition disorder that results from inactivation of the tumor suppressor neurofibromin, a negative regulator of RAS signaling. Patients with NF1 present with a wide range of clinical manifestations, and the tumor with highest prevalence is cutaneous neurofibroma (cNF). Most patients harboring cNF suffer greatly from the burden of those tumors, which have no effective medical treatment. Ironically, none of the numerous NF1 mouse models developed so far recapitulate cNF. Here, we discovered that HOXB7 serves as a lineage marker to trace the developmental origin of cNF neoplastic cells. Ablating Nf1 in the HOXB7 lineage faithfully recapitulates both human cutaneous and plexiform neurofibroma. In addition, we discovered that modulation of the Hippo pathway acts as a "modifier" for neurofibroma tumorigenesis. This mouse model opens the doors for deciphering the evolution of cNF to identify effective therapies, where none exist today. SIGNIFICANCE: This study provides insights into the developmental origin of cNF, the most common tumor in NF1, and generates the first mouse model that faithfully recapitulates both human cutaneous and plexiform neurofibroma. The study also demonstrates that the Hippo pathway can modify neurofibromagenesis, suggesting that dampening the Hippo pathway could be an attractive therapeutic target.This article is highlighted in the In This Issue feature, p. 1.

Abstract
Loss of function of the DIS3L2 exoribonuclease is associated with Wilms tumor and the Perlman congenital overgrowth syndrome. Here, Hunter et al.’s analysis of Dis3l2-null nephron progenitor cells reveals up-regulation of Igf2, a growth-promoting gene strongly associated with Wilms tumorigenesis. Loss of function of the DIS3L2 exoribonuclease is associated with Wilms tumor and the Perlman congenital overgrowth syndrome. LIN28, a Wilms tumor oncoprotein, triggers the DIS3L2-mediated degradation of the precursor of let-7, a microRNA that inhibits Wilms tumor development. These observations have led to speculation that DIS3L2-mediated tumor suppression is attributable to let-7 regulation. Here we examine new DIS3L2-deficient cell lines and mouse models, demonstrating that DIS3L2 loss has no effect on mature let-7 levels. Rather, analysis of Dis3l2-null nephron progenitor cells, a potential cell of origin of Wilms tumors, reveals up-regulation of Igf2, a growth-promoting gene strongly associated with Wilms tumorigenesis. These findings nominate a new potential mechanism underlying the pathology associated with DIS3L2 deficiency.

Abstract
Changes in muscle fascicle mechanics have been postulated to underpin the repeated bout effect (RBE) observed following exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD). However, in the medial gastrocnemius (MG), mixed evidence exists on whether fascicle stretch amplitude influences the level of EIMD, thus questioning whether changes in fascicle mechanics underpin the RBE. An alternative hypothesis is that neural adaptations contribute to the RBE in this muscle. The aim of this study was to investigate the neuromechanical adaptations during and after repeated bouts of a highly controlled muscle lengthening exercise that aimed to maximize EIMD in MG. In all, 20 subjects performed two bouts of 500 active lengthening contractions (70% of maximal activation) of the triceps surae, separated by 7 days. Ultrasound constructed fascicle length-torque (L-T) curves of MG, surface electromyography (EMG), maximum torque production, and muscle soreness were assessed before, 2 hours and 2 days after each exercise bout. The drop in maximum torque (4%) and the increase in muscle soreness (24%) following the repeated bout were significantly less than following the initial bout (8% and 59%, respectively), indicating a RBE. However, neither shift in the L-T curve nor changes in EMG parameters were present. Furthermore, muscle properties during the exercise were not related to the EIMD or RBE. Our results show that there are no global changes in gastrocnemius mechanical behavior or neural activation that could explain the observed RBE in this muscle. We suggest that adaptations in the non-contractile elements of the muscle are likely to explain the RBE in the triceps surae.

Abstract
Formation of a functional kidney depends on the balance between renewal and differentiation of nephron progenitors. Failure to sustain this balance can lead to kidney failure or stem cell tumors. For nearly 60 years, we have known that signals from an epithelial structure known as the ureteric bud were essential for maintaining this balance. More recently it was discovered that one molecule, Wnt9b, was necessary for both renewal and differentiation of the nephron progenitor cells. How one ligand signaling through one transcription factor promoted two seemingly contradictory cellular processes was unclear. In this study, we show that Wnt9b/beta-catenin signaling alone is sufficient to promote both renewal and differentiation. Moreover, we show that discrete levels of beta-catenin can promote these two disparate fates, with low levels fostering progenitor renewal and high levels driving differentiation. These results provide insight into how Wnt9b regulates distinct target genes that balance nephron progenitor renewal and differentiation.

Abstract
The kidney vasculature facilitates the excretion of wastes, the dissemination of hormones, and the regulation of blood chemistry. To carry out these diverse functions, the vasculature is regionalized within the kidney and along the nephron. However, when and how endothelial regionalization occurs remains unknown. Here, we examine the developing kidney vasculature to assess its 3-dimensional structure and transcriptional heterogeneity. First, we observe that endothelial cells (ECs) grow coordinately with the kidney bud as early as E10.5, and begin to show signs of specification by E13.5 when the first arteries can be identified. We then focus on how ECs pattern and remodel with respect to the developing nephron and collecting duct epithelia. ECs circumscribe nephron progenitor populations at the distal tips of the ureteric bud (UB) tree and form stereotyped cruciform structures around each tip. Beginning at the renal vesicle (RV) stage, ECs form a continuous plexus around developing nephrons. The endothelial plexus envelops and elaborates with the maturing nephron, becoming preferentially enriched along the early distal tubule. Lastly, we perform transcriptional and immunofluorescent screens to characterize spatiotemporal heterogeneity in the kidney vasculature and identify novel regionally enriched genes. A better understanding of development of the kidney vasculature will help instruct engineering of properly vascularized ex vivo kidneys and evaluate diseased kidneys.

Abstract
Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is a common genetic disorder characterized by the growth of fluid-filled cysts in the kidneys. Several studies reported that the serine-threonine kinase Lkb1 is dysregulated in PKD. Here we show that genetic ablation of Lkb1 in the embryonic ureteric bud has no effects on tubule formation, maintenance, or growth. However, co-ablation of Lkb1 and Tsc1, an mTOR repressor, results in an early developing, aggressive form of PKD. We find that both loss of Lkb1 and loss of Pkd1 render cells dependent on glutamine for growth. Metabolomics analysis suggests that Lkb1 mutant kidneys require glutamine for non-essential amino acid and glutathione metabolism. Inhibition of glutamine metabolism in both Lkb1/Tsc1 and Pkd1 mutant mice significantly reduces cyst progression. Thus, we identify a role for Lkb1 in glutamine metabolism within the kidney epithelia and suggest that drugs targeting glutamine metabolism may help reduce cyst number and/or size in PKD. Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is characterized by the formation of large fluid-filled cysts. Here Flowers and colleagues show that loss of Lkb1, downregulated in PKD, renders kidney cells dependent on glutamine for growth, and suggest that inhibition of glutamine metabolism may prevent cyst development in PKD.

Abstract
Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNSTs) are highly aggressive Schwann cell (SC)-lineage-derived sarcomas. Molecular events driving SC-to-MPNST transformation are incompletely understood. Here, we show that human MPNSTs exhibit elevated HIPPO-TAZ/YAP expression, and that TAZ/YAP hyperactivity in SCs caused by Lats1/2 loss potently induces high-grade nerve-associated tumors with full penetrance. Lats1/2 deficiency reprograms SCs to a cancerous, progenitor-like phenotype and promotes hyperproliferation. Conversely, disruption of TAZ/YAP activity alleviates tumor burden in Lats1/2-deficient mice and inhibits human MPNST cell proliferation. Moreover, genome-wide profiling reveals that TAZ/YAP-TEAD1 directly activates oncogenic programs, including platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR) signaling. Co-targeting TAZ/YAP and PDGFR pathways inhibits tumor growth. Thus, our findings establish a previously unrecognized convergence between Lats1/2-TAZ/YAP signaling and MPNST pathogenesis, revealing potential therapeutic targets in these untreatable tumors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The spatial correlation between WM and cortical GM disease in multiple sclerosis is controversial and has not been previously assessed with perfusion MR imaging. We sought to determine the nature of association between lobar WM, cortical GM, volume and perfusion. MATERIALS AND METHODS Nineteen individuals with secondary-progressive multiple sclerosis, 19 with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis, and 19 age-matched healthy controls were recruited. Quantitative MR perfusion imaging was used to derive CBF, CBV, and MTT within cortical GM, WM, and T2-hyperintense lesions. A 2-step multivariate linear regression (corrected for age, disease duration, and Expanded Disability Status Scale) was used to assess correlations between perfusion and volume measures in global and lobar normal-appearing WM, cortical GM, and T2-hyperintense lesions. The Bonferroni adjustment was applied as appropriate. RESULTS Global cortical GM and WM volume was significantly reduced for each group comparison, except cortical GM volume of those with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis versus controls. Global and lobar cortical GM CBF and CBV were reduced in secondary-progressive multiple sclerosis compared with other groups but not for relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis versus controls. Global and lobar WM CBF and CBV were not significantly different across groups. The distribution of lobar cortical GM and WM volume reduction was disparate, except for the occipital lobes in patients with secondary-progressive multiple sclerosis versus those with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis. Moderate associations were identified between lobar cortical GM and lobar normal-appearing WM volume in controls and in the left temporal lobe in relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis. No significant associations occurred between cortical GM and WM perfusion or volume. Strong correlations were observed between cortical-GM perfusion, normal appearing WM and lesional perfusion, with respect to each global and lobar region within HC, and RRMS and SPMS patients (R2 ≤ 0.96, P < .006 and R2 ≤ 0.738, P < .006). CONCLUSIONS The weak correlation between lobar WM and cortical GM volume loss and perfusion reduction suggests the independent pathophysiology of WM and cortical GM disease.

Abstract
Hemodynamic forces play an essential epigenetic role in heart valve development, but how they do so is not known. Here, we show that the shear-responsive transcription factor KLF2 is required in endocardial cells to regulate the mesenchymal cell responses that remodel cardiac cushions to mature valves. Endocardial Klf2 deficiency results in defective valve formation associated with loss of Wnt9b expression and reduced canonical WNT signaling in neighboring mesenchymal cells, a phenotype reproduced by endocardial-specific loss of Wnt9b. Studies in zebrafish embryos reveal that wnt9b expression is similarly restricted to the endocardial cells overlying the developing heart valves and is dependent upon both hemodynamic shear forces and klf2a expression. These studies identify KLF2-WNT9B signaling as a conserved molecular mechanism by which fluid forces sensed by endothelial cells direct the complex cellular process of heart valve development and suggest that congenital valve defects may arise due to subtle defects in this mechanotransduction pathway.

Abstract
For organs to achieve their proper size, the processes of stem cell renewal and differentiation must be tightly regulated. We previously showed that in the developing kidney, Wnt9b regulates distinct β-catenin-dependent transcriptional programs in the renewing and differentiating populations of the nephron progenitor cells. How β-catenin stimulated these two distinct programs was unclear. Here, we show that β-catenin cooperates with the transcription factor Myc to activate the progenitor renewal program. Although in multiple contexts Myc is a target of β-catenin, our characterization of a cell type-specific enhancer for the Wnt9b/β-catenin target gene Fam19a5 shows that Myc and β-catenin cooperate to activate gene expression controlled by this element. This appears to be a more general phenomenon as we find that Myc is required for the expression of every Wnt9b/β-catenin progenitor renewal target assessed as well as for proper nephron endowment in vivo This study suggests that, within the developing kidney, tissue-specific β-catenin activity is regulated by cooperation with cell type-specific transcription factors. This finding not only provides insight into the regulation of β-catenin target genes in the developing kidney, but will also advance our understanding of progenitor cell renewal in other cell types/organ systems in which Myc and β-catenin are co-expressed.

Abstract
Kidney collecting system development requires integrin-dependent cell-extracellular matrix interactions. Integrins are heterodimeric transmembrane receptors consisting of α and β subunits; crucial integrins in the kidney collecting system express the β1 subunit. The β1 cytoplasmic tail has two NPxY motifs that mediate functions by binding to cytoplasmic signaling and scaffolding molecules. Talins, scaffolding proteins that bind to the membrane proximal NPxY motif, are proposed to activate integrins and to link them to the actin cytoskeleton. We have defined the role of talin binding to the β1 proximal NPxY motif in the developing kidney collecting system in mice that selectively express a Y-to-A mutation in this motif. The mice developed a hypoplastic dysplastic collecting system. Collecting duct cells expressing this mutation had moderate abnormalities in cell adhesion, migration, proliferation and growth factor-dependent signaling. In contrast, mice lacking talins in the developing ureteric bud developed kidney agenesis and collecting duct cells had severe cytoskeletal, adhesion and polarity defects. Thus, talins are essential for kidney collecting duct development through mechanisms that extend beyond those requiring binding to the β1 integrin subunit NPxY motif.

Abstract
Renal carcinoma is a common and aggressive malignancy whose histopathogenesis is incompletely understood and that is largely resistant to cytotoxic chemotherapy. We present two mouse models of kidney cancer that recapitulate the genomic alterations found in human papillary (pRCC) and clear cell RCC (ccRCC), the most common RCC subtypes. MYC activation results in highly penetrant pRCC tumours (MYC), while MYC activation, when combined with Vhl and Cdkn2a (Ink4a/Arf) deletion (VIM), produce kidney tumours that approximate human ccRCC. RNAseq of the mouse tumours demonstrate that MYC tumours resemble Type 2 pRCC, which are known to harbour MYC activation. Furthermore, VIM tumours more closely simulate human ccRCC. Based on their high penetrance, short latency, and histologic fidelity, these models of papillary and clear cell RCC should be significant contributions to the field of kidney cancer research. Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a common and aggressive malignancy. Here, the authors generate two mouse models of the most common RCC subtypes: the human papillary RCC through MYC activation and clear cell RCC through MYC activation combined with Vhl and Cdkn2a deletion.

Abstract
(Re)Building a Kidney is a National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases-led consortium to optimize approaches for the isolation, expansion, and differentiation of appropriate kidney cell types and the integration of these cells into complex structures that replicate human kidney function. The ultimate goals of the consortium are two-fold: to develop and implement strategies for in vitro engineering of replacement kidney tissue, and to devise strategies to stimulate regeneration of nephrons in situ to restore failing kidney function. Projects within the consortium will answer fundamental questions regarding human gene expression in the developing kidney, essential signaling crosstalk between distinct cell types of the developing kidney, how to derive the many cell types of the kidney through directed differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells, which bioengineering or scaffolding strategies have the most potential for kidney tissue formation, and basic parameters of the regenerative response to injury. As these projects progress, the consortium will incorporate systematic investigations in physiologic function of in vitro and in vivo differentiated kidney tissue, strategies for engraftment in experimental animals, and development of therapeutic approaches to activate innate reparative responses.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Quantitative CBF usage as a biomarker for cognitive impairment and disease progression in MS is potentially a powerful tool for longitudinal patient monitoring. Dynamic susceptibility contrast perfusion with bookend T1-calibration (bookend technique) and pseudocontinuous arterial spin-labeling have recently been used for CBF quantification in relapsing-remitting MS. The noninvasive nature of pseudocontinuous arterial spin-labeling is advantageous over gadolinium-based techniques, but correlation between the techniques is not well-established in the context of MS. MATERIALS AND METHODS We compared pseudocontinuous arterial spin-labeling CBF with the bookend technique in a prospective cohort of 19 healthy controls, 19 subjects with relapsing-remitting MS without cognitive impairment, and 20 subjects with relapsing-remitting MS with cognitive impairment on a voxelwise and Brodmann region basis. The linear Pearson correlation, SNR, and coefficient of variation were quantified. RESULTS Voxelwise paired t tests revealed no significant CBF differences between techniques after normalization of global mean intensities. The highest Pearson correlations were observed in deep GM structures (average r = 0.71 for the basal ganglia and r = 0.65 for the thalamus) but remained robust for cortical GM, WM, and white matter lesions (average r = 0.51, 0.53, 0.54, respectively). Lower Pearson correlations were observed for cortical lesions (average r = 0.23). Brodmann region correlations were significant for all groups. All correlations were maintained in healthy controls and in patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis. The highest SNR was present in bookend perfusion, while the highest coefficient of variation was present in white matter lesions. CONCLUSIONS Agreement between pseudocontinuous arterial spin-labeling and bookend technique CBF measurements is demonstrated in healthy controls and patients with relapsing-remitting MS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Cerebral infarction evolves at different rates depending on available blood flow suggesting that treatment time windows vary depending on the degree of pial collateral recruitment. This work sought to mathematically model infarct growth and determine whether infarct volume growth can be predicted by angiographic assessment of pial collateral recruitment in an experimental MCA occlusion animal model. MATERIALS AND METHODS Pial collateral recruitment was quantified by using DSA, acquired 15 minutes following permanent MCA occlusion in 6 canines based on a scoring system (average pial collateral score) and arterial arrival time. MR imaging-based infarct volumes were measured 60, 90, 120, 180, 240 and 1440 minutes following MCA occlusion and were parameterized in terms of the growth rate index and final infarct volume (VFinal) as V(t) = VFinal [1 - e(-G × t)] (t = time). Correlations of the growth rate index and final infarct volume to the average pial collateral score and arterial arrival time were assessed by linear bivariate analysis. Correlations were used to generate asymptotic models of infarct growth for average pial collateral score or arterial arrival time values. Average pial collateral score- and arterial arrival time-based models were assessed by F tests and residual errors. RESULTS Evaluation of pial collateral recruitment at 15 minutes postocclusion was strongly correlated with 24-hour infarct volumes (average pial collateral score: r2 = 0.96, P < .003; arterial arrival time: r2 = 0.86, P < .008). Infarct growth and the growth rate index had strong and moderate linear relationships to the average pial collateral score (r2 = 0.89; P < .0033) and arterial arrival time (r2 = 0.69; P < .0419), respectively. Final infarct volume and the growth rate index were algebraically replaced by angiographically based collateral assessments to model infarct growth. The F test demonstrated no statistical advantage to using the average pial collateral score- over arterial arrival time-based predictive models, despite lower residual errors in the average pial collateral score-based model (P < .03). CONCLUSIONS In an experimental permanent MCA occlusion model, assessment of pial collaterals correlates with the infarct growth rate index and has the potential to predict asymptotic infarct volume growth.
