From: A new, easily generated mouse model of diabetic kidney fibrosis

Figure 4

Akita+/− Ren+/− mice exhibit significant interstitial fibrosis. Kidney sections were stained with (a) picrosirius red to identify fibrillar collagen or (b) Masson’s Trichrome. Representative images and quantification of interstitial fibrosis using both stains are shown. A one-way ANOVA with a post-hoc Fisher’s least significant difference analysis was performed. *p < 0.05. Scale bar: 20 μm. Abbreviations: AU, arbitrary units.
