2. Figure 1
Expression of green fluorescent protein (GFP) in tubular epithelia in rats on day 28 after transfection (on day 28). (A) Normal control group. (B) Vector control group. (C) pAdEasy-CUB group. (D) pAdEasy-ACUB group. Only weak fluorescent signals could be detected in group A; meanwhile, there were high levels of GFP fluorescent signals in tubules in groups B, C and D (n=6). No detectable signal in the normal control group by immune blotting; in contrast, significant signals were seen from the other groups, but there was no difference among the groups after semi-quantification. (E) Representative blot of GFP expression. (F) Semi-quantificational value of left blot.

Expression of cubilin in tubules on day 28. Major signals of positive cubilin localized on the brush membranes of tubules (indicated in red). (A) Normal control group. (B) Vector control group. (C) pAdEasy-CUB group. (D) pAdEasy-ACUB group (n=18 in each group). Magnification: 200×. (E) Representative blot of cubilin expression; actin serves as a normalized control (left panel). (F, G) Semi-quantificational value of left blot (right panel).

Deposition of albumin in tubules at days 14 and 28. Positive staining of albumin was indicated as red spots. Both E and J showed fewer depositions of albumin compared with B and G, respectively. (A, F) Normal control group. (B, G) Adriamycin model group. (C, H) Vector control group. (D, I) pAdEasy-CUB group. (E, J) pAdEasy-ACUB group. (A–E) Day 14. (F–J) Day 28. Magnification: 200× (n=18).

5. Figure 4
Expression of MCP-1 in tubulointerstitial in adriamycin-induced rats. Positive staining of MCP-1 was indicated in brown. Major signals paralleled with dilated tubules. Groups G, H and J showed stronger expression of MCP-1 compared with B, C and D, respectively, whereas E and J showed reduced signals compared with B and G, respectively. (A, F) Normal control group. (B,G) Adriamycin model group. (C, H) Vector control group. (D, I) pAdEasy-CUB group. (E, J) pAdEasy-ACUB group. (A–E). Day 14. (F–J) Day 28. Magnification: 200× (n=18).
