Fig 8. In situ hybridization confirms NTT-MMP-2 expression in DGF tubular epithelial cells.

Fig 8

Control protocol biopsies and DGF biopsies were processed for in situ hybridization to detect the NTT-MMP-2 mRNA transcript as detailed in Materials and Methods. Panel A: Control renal biopsy without the targeting NTT-MMP-2 oligonucleotides. Panel B: Control renal biopsy including the targeting NTT-MMP-2 oligonucleotides. There is no detectable NTT-MMP-2 transcript. Panel C: DGF biopsy without the targeting NTT-MMP-2 oligonucleotides. Panel D: DGF biopsy with the targeting NTT-MMP-2 oligonucleotides. There is readily detectable NTT-MMP-2 mRNA transcript signal within tubular epithelial cells (arrows). (Final magnification X 300).
