Fig. 8

Tissues from kidney, renal cortex and apex of the heart were processed for electron microscopy. The arrows indicate pathological changes resulting from Fabry disease-like features (storage inclusion bodies). Clearance of substrate was observed in AAV8-FLT190-treated mice compared with vehicle control Fabry mice. Representative pictures shown. The scale bar represents 10 µm and 2 µm for kidney, and 5 µm for heart. AAV8 = adeno-associated virus serotype 8; WT = wild type.
