Branching morphogenesis is a key developmental process during organogenesis, such that its disruption frequently leads to long-term consequences. The kidney and eye share many etiologies, perhaps, due to similar use of developmental branching morphogenesis and signaling pathways including cell death. Tipping the apoptotic balance towards apoptosis imparts a ureteric bud and retinal vascular branching phenotype similar to one that occurs in papillorenal syndrome. Here, to compare ureteric bud and retinal vascular branching in the context of decreased apoptosis, we investigated the impact of Bim, Bcl-2’s rival force. In the metanephros, lack of Bim expression enhanced ureteric bud branching with increases in ureteric bud length, branch points, and branch end points. Unfortunately, enhanced ureteric bud branching also came with increased branching defects and other undesirable consequences. Although we did see increased nephron number and renal mass, we observed glomeruli collapse. Retinal vascular branching in the absence of Bim expression had similarities with the ureteric bud including increased vascular length, branching length, segment length, and branching interval. Thus, our studies emphasize the impact appropriate Bim expression has on the overall length and branching in both the ureteric bud and retinal vasculature.
