Increased NTPDase Activity in Lymphocytes during Experimental Sepsis
Figure 2
(a) Normal architecture of kidney with normal convoluted tubules and glomeruli (HE, 10x). (b) Abnormal kidney of rat with induced sepsis showed architecture with cellular vacuolization (degeneration) (HE, 10x). (c) Congested tubules (HE, 10x). (d) Congested convoluted proximal tubules lined by vacuolar cells with absence of individual tubular cells (HE, 40x). (e) Presence of substantial vascular congestion in capllaries in the cortex and desquamation of cell fragments into lumen (HE, 10x). (f) The medullar area shows congested peritubular capillaries (vasa recta) with discrete polymorphonuclear infiltrate (HE, 10x).
