Double immunofluorescence staining of the podocyte marker and P2X7R/NLRP3 in renal tissues of the rat DN model. The colocalization of P2X7R (a, red spots) or NLRP3 (b, red spots) and synaptopodin (a podocyte marker; green spots indicate alone localization and yellow spots indicate colocalization) in the frozen renal tissue section of the rat DN model (immunofluorescence microscopy ×400).
