Phenotype of infiltrated glomerular macrophages in each CpG-ODN group. The phenotypes of infiltrated macrophages were evaluated immunohistologically using anti-CD68+ (pan macrophage) and anti-CD204+ (M2 macrophage) antibodies (a). In addition, the average number of each infiltrated glomerular macrophage and the phenotypic ratio were also evaluated (b). More than 30 glomeruli were evaluated in each stained section from each animal. Magnification in (a): 400X.
