Figure 1From: Urine Fetuin-A is a biomarker of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease progression Expression of Fetuin-A in mouse models of polycystic kidney disease. (a, b) Western blot analysis of Fetuin-A in (a) kidney and (b) liver extracts of the indicated genotypes. (c) Western blots of Fetuin-A in early stages of cyst formation (3 weeks, n = 4 for each genotype) or advanced cystic kidneys (9 weeks, n = 4 for each genotype) of wild-type or KspCad-CreERT2; Pkd1 fl/fl kidneys after tamoxifen administration at postnatal days 10–12. Signal quantification by Image J is shown on the right after normalization to loading control (γ-tubulin). Error bars represent standard deviation. n.s.: non-significant.Back to article page
