Figure 6.
CD24- and CD133-positive proximal tubular cells express kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1). (A – D) Double immunofluorescence staining showing co-localization between CD24 or CD133 and KIM-1 in the CD24- and CD133-positive proximal tubule cell population (arrows). Panels C and D are serial sections stained for CD24/KIM-1 and CD133/KIM-1, respectively. CD24 and CD133 are expressed by the cells of Bowman’s capsule (arrowhead) and by the same KIM-1-positive proximal tubule cells (arrows).
