Ectopic Sox9 expression in proximal tubular–derived cystic segments with decreased lotus tetragonolobus lectin (LTL) staining in adult Ift88 knock-out (KO) kidneys 3 weeks after ischemia-reperfusion (IR).Representative co-immunofluorescence images for Sox9 (red) and LTL (green) in control and Ift88KO, 3 weeks after IR injury or sham surgery. A and B: No Sox9 signal is present. LTL-positive cells in control kidneys subjected to sham surgery (A, arrowhead) or to IR injury (B, arrowhead). C: In Ift88KO kidneys subjected to sham surgery, no Sox9 signal is observed in LTL-positive proximal tubules (arrowhead). D: In Ift88KO/IR kidneys, Sox9 is absent in LTL-positive tubules and cystic cells (arrowhead), but is expressed ectopically in cystic segments with reduced LTL staining (concave arrowheads). Scale bar = 50 μm.
