Podocyte-specific Crb2 knockout mice develop massive albuminuria and microhematuria at 2 months of age. (a) Massive albuminuria was observed at 2 months of age in Crb2fl/flpod-CreTg/+ mice compared to Crb2+/+pod-CreTg/+ or Crb2fl/fl mice. Microhematuria was observed at 2 months of age in Crb2fl/flpod-CreTg/+ mice compared to Crb2+/+pod-CreTg/+ or Crb2fl/fl mice. (b) The blood urea nitrogen and serum creatinine levels were comparable among the three groups at 2 months of age. (c) The sclerotic indices were comparable among the three groups at 2 months of age. Scale bars 50 μm. (d) The fibrotic indices were comparable among the three groups at 2 months of age. Scale bars 100 μm. Data are presented as mean ± SD. Statistical analysis by one-way analysis of variance, followed by Scheffe's multiple comparison test; n = 6 in each group. **P < 0.01, ****P < 0.0001.
