Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 5. Tight junction protein expression in subcutaneous adipose tissue. (A) Immunofluorescence staining of tight junction proteins (red) claudin-5, occludin, and JAM-1, nuclear staining with DAPI (blue), endothelial marker CD31 (green) in subcutaneous tissue of kidney transplant recipients and donors. Bar = 100 µm. Expression of tight junction proteins (B) claudin-5, (C) occludin and (D) JAM-1 in subcutaneous tissue of kidney transplant recipients and donors. Results expressed in medians and interquartile range. Statistical significance *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01.

Article Snippet: Primary antibodies used were claudin-5 (1:200, CSB-PA005507LA01HU, Cusabio Technology, USA), occludin (1:200, CSB-PA016263LA01HU, Cusabio Technology), and JAM-1 (1:400, CSB-PA897579LA01HU, Cusabio Technology), and incubated overnight at 4 °C in 3% Triton and 5% goat serum in 1X PBS.

Techniques: Expressing, Immunofluorescence, Staining, Marker

Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 6. TMAO incubation and tight junction protein expression in subcutaneous adipose tissue. (A) Immunofluorescence staining of tight junction proteins (red) claudin-5, occludin, and JAM-1, nuclear staining with DAPI (blue), endothelial marker CD31 (green) in subcutaneous tissue incubated with (A) TMAO and (B) control media. Bar = 100 µm. Expression of tight junction proteins (B) claudin-5, (C) occludin and (D) JAM-1 in subcutaneous tissue after incubation with TMAO and control media. Results expressed in medians and interquartile range. Statistical significance *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01.
