Results
Specimen 3C: postnatal adult; Gjb4tm1Kwi/Gjb4tm1Kwi (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: cortical collecting duct Present Single cells 3C A few cells of the cortex were labeled.
TS28: renal proximal tubule Present Single cells 3C A few cells of the cortex were labeled.

Specimen 3D: postnatal adult; Gjb4tm1Kwi/Gjb4tm1Kwi (more )
Structure Cell Type Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: thin ascending limb of inner medulla Present Regionally restricted 3D The most intense labelling was found in the inner medulla in the loop of Henle.
