SCr level and HE staining of renal tissue in mice AKI model. SCr level in mice AKI model (a). HE stains of mice renal tissue (b). Magnification×100. The arrows show the vacuolar degeneration, the shedding of renal tubular epithelial cells, or the enlarged tubule cavity. P (compared with the control): <0.05, <0.01, <0.001.
