11R-VIVIT partially restores podocyte number. (A) Typical images of WT1 stained glomeruli from BKS, db/db and db/db+11R-VIVIT mice. Arrows point to WT-1-positive cells. Magnification ×400. (B) Quantification of podocyte markers WT-1-positive cells per glomerular section. The number of WT1-stained nuclei was obtained from 20 glomeruli per kidney section from five mice per group. Data are means ± SEM. *P < 0.05, #P < 0.01 versus db/db + PBS.
