PASM staining (× 400) shows that up-regulated miR-181a or down-regulated CRY1 reduces the GSI. Notes: Panel a, results of PASM staining under a microscope; Panel b, histogram of PASM results; *, p < 0.05 vs. the normal group; #, p < 0.05 vs. the blank and NC groups; the data are presented as the mean ± standard deviation, analyzed by one-way ANOVA; the experiment was independently repeated three times; NC, negative control; miR-181a, microRNA-181a; CRY1, cryptochrome 1; GSI, glomerulosclerosis index; PASM, periodic Schiff-methenamine
