Fig. 5. Influence of quercetin on nephrin, podocin, and desmin expression. (A) Immunohistochemical staining of nephrin, podocin, and desmin in NC, DN, DN + LQ, and DN + HQ groups (400×). (B) Semi-quantitative immunohistochemical analysis of nephrin, podocin, and desmin expression in the four groups (a–c). Values represent mean ± SD (n = 5 per group). *P < 0.05 vs. NC group, #P < 0.05 vs. DN group.
