Abstract
Application of the TUNEL method and immunostaining cell-specific markers to a whole isolated glomerulus in combination with confocal laser scan microscopy can be used to analyze cell turnover including apoptosis within glomeruli. Furthermore, the technologies can be used to deepen our understanding of glomerular cell biology and pathophysiology at the cellular and molecular levels.
