Lectin staining characteristics of cell outgrowths, 10 days after explanting. The majority of cells stain for Pha-E and Pha-L, lectins specific for the proximal tubular epithelium. (a) Arachis hypogaea (AH); (b) Bandeiraea simplicifolia I (BSL-I); (c) Phaseolus vulgaris erythroagglutinin (Pha-E); (d) Phaseolus vulgaris leukoagglutinin (Pha-L). Scale bar = 25 μm.
