Renal histology following a unilateral ischemia reperfusion injury.

<p>(A) As seen by periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) staining, the tubular injury was partially restored from day 3 to day 28 (D3 to D28). (B) As seen by Masson’s trichrome (MT) staining, we observed the development and progression of interstitial fibrosis in the kidneys during the 28 days. (n = 5–6 per group), (C) In immunohistochemical staining, we detected the upregulation of TGF-β. Magnification: ×100, (n = 4–6 per group), *p < 0.05 compared to day 0, ^†p < 0.05 compared to the previous time point.
