a–d Representative images showing Masson staining, circBNC2 and ctBNC2 expression, and expression of p-H3 in serial sections of normal kidney and IRI-induced kidney fibrosis (a) and the semi-quantitative data (b–d). For b–d, n = 10 for control, n = 12 for patients with IRI-induced kidney fibrosis). e–j Representative photos showing Masson staining, circBNC2 and ctBNC2 expression, expression of p-H3, TUNEL positive cells, and levels of αSMA, in serial sections of normal liver and hepatitis B virus (HBV)-induced liver fibrosis (e) and the semi-quantitative data (f–j). For f–j, n = 10 tissue in each group. Data are expressed as means ± SD. Two-sided Mann–Whitney U test was used for the comparison of two groups (b, c, d, f, g, h, i, j). Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
