Cardiac Inflammation, Oxidative Stress, Nrf2 Expression, and Coagulation Events in Mice with Experimental Chronic Kidney Disease

Figure 1

Representative light microscopy sections of kidney tissues of control mice and those given with adenine mixed in the feed (0.2% , for four weeks), stained with H&E. (a, b) The control group shows unremarkable morphologic changes in renal tubules (thin arrow) and glomeruli (arrowhead). (c, d) The adenine-treated group shows dilatation of the renal tubules (thin arrow), tubular damage (arrowhead), and neutrophil polymorph infiltration of the affected tubules (thick arrow). Scale bars in (a, c): 200 μm and (b, d): 50 μm.
