Effect of KXL and LP on renal histopathology in rats induced by 5/6 nephrectomy operation. (a) HE and Masson staining all showed renal structural damage in rats (200∗magnification). Masson staining illustrated the degree of renal fibrosis in rats (200∗magnification). (b) Both the tubulointerstitial lesion score and the interstitial collagen region were expressed as mean ± standard error of the mean. ∗∗P < 0.01 compared with control group and sham group; #P < 0.05 and ##P < 0.01 compared with model group.
