A. Representative photomicrographs of α-SMA immunofluorescent staining in kidneys of WT and CXCR6-KO mice 2 weeks after UUO. Scale bar: 25 µm. B. Quantitative analysis of α-SMA protein expression in kidneys of WT and CXCR6-KO mice 2 weeks after UUO. ** P <0.01 versus WT controls, + P <0.05 versus KO UUO, and # P <0.05 versus WT UUO. n=6 per group. C. Representative Western blots show the levels of α-SMA protein expression in kidneys of WT and CXCR6-KO mice. D. Quantitative analysis of α-SMA protein expression in kidneys of WT and CXCR6-KO mice. ** P <0.01 versus WT controls, + P <0.05 versus KO UUO, and # P <0.05 versus WT UUO. n=6 per group.
