Figure 3.
GLCCI1 is expressed in capillary state but insignificantly in earlier S-shape glomeruli. Immunostaining of GLCCI1 in fetal mouse kidney shows expression at embryonic day 15.5. GLCCI1 is initially expressed in podocyte cytoplasm (arrowheads) of capillary loop stage glomerulus. At the earlier S-shape stage (asterisk), GLCCI1 expression is insignificant.
