Figure 1. H-FABP in the glomeruli of patients with ORG and in db/db mice.

Figure 1

A–C: H-FABP immunostaining in normal (A) and ORG-affected (B) glomerulus. It was shown that the expression of H-FABP was significantly higher in patients with ORG than in controls (C, P<0.0001). D–H: Mouse H-FABP expression from 8 week db/db (D), 12 week db/db (E), 20 week db/db (F) and 20 week db/m control (G) mice. The percentage of the H-FABP-positive area in the glomeruli increased with age in db/db mice and was significantly higher than in db/m mice (H). I: Correlation of H-FABP expression with the albuminuria level, Pearson's correlation test. Data are presented as the mean ± SD.
