Immunohistochemical Results in Control and ADPKD by Morphometry Using a Color Image Analysis and Tubular Count

ADPKD, autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease; α-SMA, α-smooth muscle actin; TGF-β1, transforming growth factor-β1.

Area fractions (%) are evaluated by color image analysis for 4 fields each specimen (× 200).

Positive tubules (%) are evaluated as percent of positive tubules/total tubules (× 200).

Data are shown as mean ± SD.

^*p < 0.05.
