Histological features of sham-operated (sham) and advanced CRF rat kidneys. A H&E staining in sham-operated (sham) and advanced CRF rat kidneys. a, b High-power views of cortical interstitium. Magnification ×60. c The mRNA abundance of CD3 (left) and ED-1 (right) in the renal cortex of sham-operated and advanced CRF rat kidneys. # P<0.05 vs. sham-operated rats. Values are mean ± SEM (N = 6). Differences were analyzed by analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by Dunnett’s or Student’s t test. B Immunohistochemistry using antibody for Ki-67 (brown) in sham-operated and advanced CRF rat kidneys. a, b High-power views of cortical interstitium. Magnification ×60. Modified from Ref.
