From: Reconfiguration and loss of peritubular capillaries in chronic kidney disease
Roundness and circularity of post-processed peritubular capillaries in mouse models with chronic tubulointerstitial injury. Relative frequency distribution of all roundness (A, C, E, G) and circularity (B, D, F, H) values of peritubular capillaries in male C57BL/6NCrl control mice (n = 14) (A, B) and mice with adenine-induced tubulointerstitial nephritis (TIN, n = 11) (C, D), unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO, n = 10) (E, F) and bilateral ischemia–reperfusion (I/R) injury (n = 10) (G, H). Semiautomatically segmented and manually post-processed capillary masks were analyzed. Indicated are the number (N) of capillaries, mean, median, mode, standard deviation (SD) and interquartile range (IQR) of distribution. Bar width represents ranges of 0.05.
