Localization of claudin-3, -4 -7 and -8 compared to aquaporin-2 and calbindin: photomicrographs showing serial sections of human renal cortical tissue stained for claudin-3 (A), claudin-4 (B), aquaporin-2 (C), calbindin (D), claudin-8 (E) and claudin-7 (F) [claudin-3, -4, -8 and -7 stained tubules that were coincident with similar ones that were positive for aquaporin-2 and calbindin (asterisks in A–F) but were also localized in calbindin positive, aquaporin-2 negative tubules (arrowheads in A–F); claudin-4, -7 and -8 showed similar staining patterns, whereas claudin-3 strongly stained additional tubules which were negative for claudin-4, -7, -8, aquaporin-2 and calbindin (arrows in A–F); scale bar 100 µm].
