Figure 6. SIGIRR and morphometric analysis of tubulointerstitial pathology after UUO.

Figure 6

Cortical renal sections were stained with silver. Images illustrate representative sections of UUO and sham-operated kidneys 10 days after UUO in mice of the respective group as indicated (original magnification 200×). The indices for interstitial volume, tubular damage, and tubular lumen were determined in UUO kidneys from wildtype (black bars) and Sigirr-deficient mice (white bars) by quantitative morphometry as decribed in the methods section. Values represent means ± SD from 10 high power fields of UUO kidneys from 10 mice in each group.
