Figure 1From: Human Wharton’s jelly-derived mesenchymal stromal cells reduce renal fibrosis through induction of native and foreign hepatocyte growth factor synthesis in injured tubular epithelial cellsRepresentative micrographs of Masson trichrome staining in tubular interstitial area. Ischemic injury caused a progressive increase in positive-staining collagen deposition, whereas either nephrectomy or cell injection resulted in a remarkable reduction in collagen deposition. The original magnification is ×400.Back to article page
