Pathological morphological features of kidney tissues in each group of rats. (A) Pathological morphological features of glomeruli in each group of rats. The arrow shows mesangial hyperplasia. (B) Mesangial index of rats in each group. (C) Pathological morphological features of renal tubules in each group. The arrow shows the protein-like cast. (D) Tube area percentage of each group of rats. (E) Pathological morphological features of renal arterioles in each group. The arrow shows thickening of the arteriolar wall. (F) Renal arteriosclerosis index of rats in each group. Data are presented as mean ± SD. n = 8. *P < 0.05 vs. Control, #P < 0.05 vs. DM group.
