Fig. 10: Changes in the distribution of cathepsin D (CD) and LAMP1 in podocytes after exposure to AGE-BSA.

Immunofluorescence staining of LAMP1 and cathepsin D (CD) in podocytes after exposure to 100 μg/ml AGE-BSA for 0, 3, 6, 12, or 36 h. The red immunofluorescence showed the leakage of CD from lysosomes into the cytoplasm that was accompanied by dispersed LAMP1 (green fluorescence). Scale bar, 10 μm
