Quantitative collagen I and III mRNA expression and Masson’s trichrome staining following unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO). A: quantitative collagen I mRNA expression represented as a percentage of β-actin in animals exposed to sham operation in the presence of vehicle (sham) or exogenous mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) (sham + SC), or 4 wk of UUO in the presence of vehicle (OB) or MSCs (OB + SC). B: quantitative collagen III mRNA expression represented as a percentage of β−actin in animals exposed to sham operation in the presence of vehicle or exogenous MSCs, or 4 wk of UUO in the presence of vehicle or MSCs. C: images depicting collagen deposition (blue stain; arrows) in animals exposed to sham operation or 4 wk of UUO in the presence of vehicle or MSCs. T, tubule; G, glomerulus. Magnification ×400.
