Expression of osteopontin (OPN) in normal adult kidneys. OPN expression in normal mouse kidneys is primarily restricted to the thick ascending limbs of the loop of Henle and distal convoluted tubules. In normal rat kidneys, OPN is primarily present in the descending thin limbs of the loop of Henle in the outer medulla. In normal human kidneys, OPN is localized primarily to the distal nephrons and is strongly expressed by the thick ascending limbs of the loop of Henle.
