Abstract
⺠KLF5 is required for stratification and terminal differentiation of urothelial cells. ⺠Defects in urothelial maturation induces hydronephrosis. ⺠KLF5 is not required for maturation of the bladder neck and urethral epithelium. ⺠Grhl3 and Pparγ are candidate targets of KLF5 during urothelial maturation. ⺠KLF5 regulates paracrine interactions with bladder mesenchyme.
