Renal tubular cells show enhanced expression of TGF-β and spatial relationship with CTGF in Vpr-Agt-4. Renal cortical sections of Vpr mice from the protocol C were immunolabeled for TGF-β. Representative microphotographs from Vpr-Agt-2 (A) and Vpr-Agt-4 (B) are shown. Tubular cells of Vpr-Agt-4 showed enhanced expression of TGF-β (indicated by brown staining). C and D: Serial sections from Vpr-Agt-4 were immunolabeled for CTGF and TGF-β. Representative micrographs showing renal cell labeling for CTGF (C) and TGF-β (D) are shown. Only a limited number of cells displayed labeling for both CTGF and TGF-β (indicated by arrows).
