Glomerular damage was scored from 0 to 3. Infiltrating monocytes/macrophages were expressed as number of ED1+ cells/glomerular cross section (gcs). Values are mean ± SD.

*, Not significant and P < 0.05 compared to control rats receiving saline, respectively.

P < 0.05 versus untreated nephritis rats (injected with saline). ND, not determined.
