Microarray data sets used to evaluate the expression of versican in renal pathologies.

DN diabetic nephropathy, MCD minimal change disease, LD living donors, CD cadaveric donors, PTECs proximal tubular epithelial cells. a Proteinuric glomerular diseases included focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), MCD, IgA nephropathy (IGAN), lupus nephritis (LN), rapid-progressive glomerulonephritis (RPGN), membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN), ANCA associated vasculitis (AAV) and hypertensive nephropathy (HTN). Mean values and standard deviations are shown. b Refer to the text for definition of the histological classes. c In (8) samples with low and high histological damage were compared and in (9) stable and progressive samples were compared. A two-tailed t-test was performed. In (10) samples from MCD and DN were compared (two tailed t-test), and also a Pearson correlation of creatinine at biopsy and histology score in DN with versican levels was calculated.
