Kidney pathology and ECM protein deposition in mice. (A) HE, PAS, and Masson staining of mice renal cortex (× 400),  Inline graphic   glomerular atrophy,  Inline graphic  renal tubular dilatation,  Inline graphic  thickening of renal tubular and glomerular basement membrane,  Inline graphic  collagen fiber deposition. (B) Quantification of collagen fibers of Masson stained in mouse renal cortex. (C) Expression of extracellular matrix protein in mice of each group and quantification of extracellular matrix protein like FN (a), collagen Ι (b), vimentin (c), and TGFβ (d). Values are the means ± SD. *p < 0.05, ***p < 0.001 vs. control group; #p < 0.05, ##p < 0.01, ### p < 0.001, vs. UUO group.
