Kidney section of glycerol-treated rats shows rupture glomeruli shown by broken arrow, also rupture and vacuolization of medullary tubular cells represented by broken arrow (b). Kidney section of rats pretreated with Punica granatum is shown by bold arrow, before glycerol shows almost near morphology to saline-treated normal rats (c)
