Immunohistochemical demonstration of vimentin and S-100 protein in the kidneys.
Vimentin and S-100 protein expression was studied in the kidneys of adult sheep and goat using immunohistochemistry. Vimentin was detected in the podocytes, mesangial cells of the glomerulus, in the endothelium of renal capillaries and renal stromal cells. In collecting tubules, ducts and nerves of the renal papilla, S-100 protein was expressed.
