Significant shift in physiologic and biochemical parameters and kidney pathology in DKD rats, and the effects of TSF treatment on renal damage. (A) Body weight of rats in the sham and DKD groups. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, versus sham rats. (B) Urinary parameters of sham and DKD rats. (C) Biochemical parameters in rat serum in the sham and DKD groups. (D) H&E, Masson trichrome, and PAS staining. (E–G) Semi-quantification of mesangial matrix, fibrosis area, and inflammatory scores based on PAS, Masson trichrome, and H&E staining, respectively. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01.
