Deposited calcium oxalate stones cause Golgi stress in renal tubular epithelial cells (A) Immunofluorescence staining of Golgi morphological marker GM130 (green) in renal tissue(n = 6). (B, C) The function and structural proteins of Golgi apparatus (GRASP65, ARF4, PI4KIIIβ and MYO18A) and renal fibrosis related proteins (Collagen I, Vimentin, α-SMA) were detected in renal tissues by Western blots and qRT-PCR analysis. Data are the mean ± SEM of at least three independent experiments. **P < 0.01, ****P < 0.0001 versus NC group.
