Figure 6
CCR5 deficient animals show less fibrosis after adenine-enriched food intake. (a) Representative image of the picrosirius staining in renal tissue of the indicated groups. (b) Graphic quantification of the picrosirius positive area of each group ( versus control and CCR5 groups). The gene levels of E-cadherin (panel (c)) and vimentin (panel (d)) were also assessed ( versus WT).
