Fetal kidney stem cells ameliorate cisplatin induced acute renal failure and promote renal angiogenesis

Figure 1 Morphology (A) and characterization of fetal kidney stem cells (B and C). A: Representative photomicrograph (Scale bars indicate 100 μm) showing spindle-shaped and polygonal morphology of fetal kidney stem cells (fKSC); B: Phenotypic characterization of fKSC by flow cytometry showing expression of CD29, CD44, CD73, CD90, CD105, CD45, and MHC class II (green or red lines, detected with FITC - or phycoerythrin-conjugated antibodies, respectively) with isotype controls (black lines); C: Representative immunoflourescent photomicrographs (Scale bars indicate 20 μm) showing expression of renal progenitor markers viz. Wt1, Pax2 and Six2 on fKSC.
