name: mesenchymal stem cell maintenance involved in nephron morphogenesis
namespace: biological_process
type: go
obsolete: False
Description: The process in which an organism retains a population of mesenchymal stem cells that contributes to the shaping of a nephron. A mesenchymal stem cell is a cell that retains the ability to divide and proliferate throughout life to provide progenitor cells that can differentiate into specialized mesenchymal cells.
