Immunofluorescence analysis of podocyte proteins in kidney sections from congenic rat substrains for α- and β-adducin. Immunohistochemical expression of podocyte proteins (nephrin, synaptopodin, α-actinin) was evaluated in kidney preparations from 1.5-month-old male MHS, MNS rats and in congenic substrains for α-adducin (NA), β-adducin (NB), and αβ-adducin (NAB). Five rats for each group were analyzed. Magnification: nephrin MHS and NA ×250; nephrin MNS, NB, and NAB ×400; synaptopodin and α-actinin ×400. Figure S6 in supplementary data shows the quantitative immunofluorescence analysis
