Representative ultrastructural images of renal tubules show (A) no pathological changes in sham animals, (B) prominent vacuoles (v) in the acute and (C) pronounced tubular atrophy (d = detached tubular cell) in the subacute model. Magnification: 2,000×; ultrathin sections, n = 2 animals were studied per group.
