Histopathological changes of right kidneys. Periodic acid Schiff stain was performed on kidney tissue sections of sham, uninephrectomised (UNX), angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) and angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) rats at 9 months after uninephrectomy. Compared with sham rats, uninephrectomised rats showed diffuse glomerulosclerosis, basement membrane thickening, tubular atrophy with cast formation, and chronic inflammatory infiltration in the remnant kidney. Treatments with ACEI and ARB largely ameliorated these renal structural damages. Original magnification ×400.
