Identification of Type VI Collagen Synthesizing Cells in Human Diabetic Glomerulosclerosis Using Renal Biopsy Sections
Although the role of extracellular matrices in the development of glomerulosclerosis has been discussed widely, the cellular origin of type VI collagen in diabetic nephropathy (DN) has remained relatively unexplored. This study reports the distribution and cellular origin of type VI collagen in DN....
