Figure 3

Expression of claudin 2 in Bowman’s capsule and proximal tubule in kidney from rat. In renal sections from a normal rat, claudin 2 (green label) costained with claudin 5 (red label), is expressed in Bowman’s capsule (arrow heads, (a)). Claudin 2 (green label) costained with dipeptidyl peptidase (red label) shows a typical “chicken fence” pattern in proximal tubules (arrows, (b)). Bar = 50 μm.
