Protective Effects of Luteolin on Diabetic Nephropathy in STZ-Induced Diabetic Rats
Figure 2
Photomicrographs of H-E staining in the kidney of each group. (a) Control rat. (b) Control rat with luteolin. (c) Diabetic rat. (d) Diabetic rats with luteolin. The kidney specimen of the diabetic group showed markedly severe destruction in glomerular and tubulointerstitial lesions such as glomerular sclerosis atrophy, interstitial expansion, and interstitial cellular infiltration (c). General morphology of glomerulus and tubulointerstitial lesions were much improved and showed quite normal appearance.
