The endothelial cell marker PECAM-1 co-localized with IL-17 staining in glomerular cells on day 5 after induction of acute anti-thy1 glomerulonephritis, as indicated by the yellow merge in Fig 6, while there was no merge with the mesangial cell marker OX-7 or the podocyte cell marker synaptopodin (Fig 7). The gene discussed is THY1; the disease is glomerulonephritis.
