CD133 Staining Detects Acute Kidney Injury and Differentiates Clear Cell Papillary Renal Cell Carcinoma from Other Renal Tumors

Table 1

Clinical indices and expression scores of CD133 in adult renal biopsies.

	sCr (mg/dL)	CD133 in PT	CD133 in DT
Controls; 𝑛=16	0.93 ± 0.07	0.50 ± 0.00	0.96 ± 0.03
TMA; 𝑛=13	3.06 ± 0.54*	1.84 ± 0.22*	1.69 ± 0.17*
Crescent GN; 𝑛=13	5.61 ± 1.23^*#	2.16 ± 0.24^*#	2.00 ± 0.24*
Collapsing GN; 𝑛=9	5.83 ± 1.11^*#	2.66 ± 0.16^*#	2.33 ± 0.23^*#
TI disease; 𝑛=14	6.14 ± 0.73^*#	2.35 ± 0.19^*#	2.25 ± 0.25*

^∗𝑃<0.05 versus control; ^#𝑃<0.05 versus thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA); sCr: serum creatinine; TI disease: tubulointerstitial disease; PT: proximal tubules; DT: distal tubules; GN: glomerulopathy. Note: all biomarker scores have arbitrary units.
