Fig 4. Piceatannol does not affect UUO-induced tubular atrophy.

Fig 4

(A-C) One day after UUO surgery, the mice received an intraperitoneal injection of vehicle or piceatannol (50 mg/kg/day) for 2 weeks. (A) The kidney weight to body weight ratio (mg/g) is shown. (B) Representative photomicrographs of the kidneys are shown (upper panel). Left panel is organized as follows: contralateral + vehicle (Con + Veh), UUO + vehicle (UUO + Veh), contralateral + piceatannol (Con + PIC), and UUO + piceatannol (UUO + PIC). Representative images of hematoxylin & eosin (H&E) staining are shown at a lower magnification (lower panel). (C) H&E staining was performed to examine changes in the renal structure: Con + Veh, Con + PIC, UUO + Veh, and UUO + PIC. Scale bar is 50 μm. Asterisks (*, red) indicates tubular atrophy.
