Histological findings at postoperative week 13. Hematoxylin and eosin staining a and Masson’s trichrome staining b in the renal tissue of sham-operated rats treated with control adenovirus (a), 5/6 Nx rats treated with control adenovirus (b) and 5/6 Nx rats treated with Ad-netrin-1 (c; original magnification: 400×). Quantification of the percentage of interstitial space c in the kidney is presented in a bar chart; the relative interstitial volume was quantified by morphometric analysis of Masson trichrome-stained kidney sections in each group; all results are expressed as mean ± SEM; *, P < 0.05 vs. sham. #, P < 0.05 vs. 5/6 Nx group; n = 10 for each group
