GO:0061225
Synonyms
  • mesonephric Goormaghtigh proliferation
  • mesonephric lacis cell proliferation
Definition
The multiplication or reproduction of extraglomerular glomerular mesangium cells in the mesonephros by cell division, resulting in the expansion of their population. Extraglomerular mesangial cells (also known as lacis cells, Goormaghtigh cells) are light-staining cells in the kidney found outside the glomerulus, near the vascular pole and macula densa.
