Figure 1 Light micrographs of a glomerulus from homozygous transgenic mice (A), heterozygous transgenic mice (B), and nontransgenic mice (C). All mice were three months old (PAS stain, final magnification ×400).

Figure 2 Light micrographs of a glomerulus from homozygous transgenic mice (A) and nontransgenic mice (B). All mice were three months old. PAS-positive materials in the vascular pole are indicated by an arrow. Magnification is ×400.

Figure 3 Immunochemistry micrographs of a glomerulus stained by mAb that was reactive with laminin (first column), type IV collagen (second column), or type I collagen (third column). (A, B, and C) Homozygous transgenic mice. (D, E, and F) Nontransgenic mice. All mice were three months old. Magnification is ×400.
