PURPOSE: Mice with Fgfr2 conditional deletion in metanephric mesenchyma (Fgfr2(Mes-/-)) have ureteral bud induction abnormalities. We determined whether Fgfr2(Mes-/-) mutants developed abnormally positioned ureters predisposing to vesicoureteral reflux.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: We measured common nephric duct length and assayed for apoptosis in embryonic day 11.5 mice. We performed 3-dimensional reconstruction of, and real-time polymerase chain reaction and whole mount in situ hybridization for Fgfr2 in urinary tracts in embryonic day 15.5 embryos. We also performed cystograms followed by 3-dimensional reconstruction in postnatal animals.
RESULTS: Compared with controls Fgfr2(Mes-/-) embryos had increased common nephric duct length with no difference in apoptosis, indicating cranially displaced ureteral buds. Three-dimensional reconstruction at embryonic day 15.5 showed low ureteral insertion into the bladder near the bladder neck in Fgfr2(Mes-/-) mice. Postnatal Fgfr2(Mes-/-) mutants had a high rate of vesicoureteral reflux compared with controls (47.4% vs 4.0%, p = 0.00006). In postnatal mutants with unilateral reflux the refluxing ureters inserted closer to the bladder neck than nonrefluxing ureters. External ureteral insertional angles at the outer bladder wall formed by the ureteral insertion points and the bladder neck were greater in mutant refluxing ureters than in contralateral nonrefluxing ureters or control ureters. At embryonic day 15.5 Fgfr2 was decreased in Fgfr2(Mes-/-) kidneys compared with that in controls but not statistically different in ureters or bladders.
CONCLUSIONS: Fgfr2(Mes-/-) mice have ureteral induction abnormalities associated with abnormal ureteral insertion in the bladder and subsequent vesicoureteral reflux, consistent with the Mackie and Stephens hypothesis.
