Figure 2

BM derived stem cells can acquire renal stem cells characteristics. (A) Renal stem cells positive for GFP and Sca-1 or c-Kit were showed in merge (arrowhead). Nuclei were stained with DAPI (blue). Scale bars = 50 μm (left) and 5 μm (right), respectively. (B) Quantitative analysis of renal stem cells revealed that G-CSF administration nearly doubled the frequency of Sca-1 expressing BM-derived renal stem cells. *P < 0.05 vs. 4w Saline group; # P < 0.05 vs. 8w Saline group. (C) Quantitative analysis of c-Kit positive renal progenitor cells. HPF: high-power field, (×400).
