Figure 5

The effect of MMF on podocyte injury. Nephrin and WT1 are represented for db/m, db/db, and MMF-treated db/db mice (a, b and d, e, resp.). TUNEL assay for apoptotic injury in glomeruli (c), and TUNEL-positive cells counted for quantitative analysis (f) in three experimental groups. The results are expressed as mean ± SE. versus db/m; versus db/db. Original magnification ×400.
