1 18596122 One clone, designated mouse PEC (mPEC), was extensively characterized. mPEC exhibited a compact cell body with typical epithelial morphology when grown in permissive conditions, but the cell shape changed to polygonal after 14 d in growth-restrictive conditions. mPEC but not podocytes used as a negative control expressed claudin-1, claudin-2, and protein gene product 9.5, which are proteins specific to PEC in vivo, and did not express the podocyte-specific proteins synaptopodin and nephrin.
2 18596122 The junctional proteins zonula occludens-1 and beta-catenin stained positively in both mPEC and podocytes, but the staining pattern at cell-cell contacts was intermittent in mPEC and linear in podocytes.
