Human Endothelial Cell Seeding in Partially Decellularized Kidneys

Figure 4

Transplantation of partially decellularized and recellularized kidneys. (a) The termino-terminal vascular anastomosis and the cannulated ureter are shown. (b) Macroscopic sections of transplanted kidneys are shown. (c, d) Histological images of transplanted kidneys show increased cellularity at the glomerulus, and cells in close contact to the basement membrane are observed. A single representative image is shown from 7 transplant recellularized kidneys.
