Figure 2

Representative micrographs of H&E-stained sections of the young group (N = 10) showing renal corpuscles with a normal glomerular tuft G containing glomerular capillaries (bent arrow). Bowman’s space (s) is located between the two layers of Bowman’s capsule: parietal layer (arrow) and visceral layer (double arrows). Proximal (asterisk) and distal (circle) convoluted tubules are also seen with normal tubular epithelium (arched arrow). H&E (a): 40x, scale bar = 20 µm; (b): 100x, scale bar = 8 µm. N = number of rats/group.
