Figure 2.
Micrograph from a section of the kidney of (A) control rat showing normal structure of renal corpuscle (asterisk) and renal tubules, distal (arrows), and proximal (arrowheads) convoluted tubules; (B) rat given CCl4 showing partially degenerated glomerulus (asterisk). Focal of interstitial hemorrhage is seen (arrows): (C) rat given CCl4 showing necrosis of the renal tubules (arrows). Some renal tubules showed complete degeneration (arrowheads): (D) rat given CCl4 and treated with silymarin showing the renal corpuscle and renal tubules appeared nearly to that of normal control; (E) rat given CCl4 and treated with naringenin (20 mg/kg) showed the renal corpuscle and renal tubules appeared nearly to normal control. Noticed degenerative renal tubules (arrows): (F) rat given CCl4 and treated with naringenin (40 mg/kg) showed the renal corpuscle and renal tubules appeared more or less like normal (H&E, Scale bar: 5 µm).
