Effect of losartan, atorvastatin, or farnesyl transferase inhibitor (FTI) administration on renal alpha-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) expression detected by immunohistochemistry in UUO mice. Representative interstitial sections from nonobstructed (NO) and obstructed (O) kidneys of UUO untreated control mice ((a) and (b)) and UUO mice treated with losartan ((c) and (d)), atorvastatin ((e) and (f)) or FTI ((g) and (h)). Black bar indicates 100 microns in all panels.
