title: Another niche for Notch.
abstract: The Notch signaling pathway patterns the developing nephron along the proximal-distal axis during renal development. In an adult acute tubular necrosis model, Kobayashi et al. now show expression of many Notch components and the activation of Notch target genes, suggesting a critical function for Notch in regenerating proximal tubules.
