Figure 1

Minimal change of nephropathy was noted under renal pathological examination. (a) HE staining showed mild lesions of the glomeruli, pointed by the white arrow. Scale bar indicates 40 μm. (b) PAS staining showed obvious proliferation of mesangial cells and matrix, pointed by the white arrow. Scale bar indicates 25 μm. (c) PASM staining showed swollen epithelium, vascular degermation, diffused foot processes, and mesangial cell and stromal segmental hyperplasia, pointed by a white arrow. Scale bar indicates 25 μm. (d) Transmission electron microscope imaging showed podocytes diffuse fusion, pointed by a black arrow. Scale bar indicates 2 μm.
