A photomicrograph of a kidney section showing (A) control group I with normal histological architecture. (B) NSAE group III with slightly normal histological architecture except for focal dilatation of renal tubules (DT). (C) NS-Ag-NC group IV with slightly normal histological architecture except for the widening of interstitial space at certain sites (*). (D) TAA group V with rupture Bowman’s capsule and lobulated glomeruli of some renal corpuscles (thin arrows) and dilatation of renal tubules (DT). (E) Combined NSAE and TAA-treated group VI with the normality of most renal cortical tissue except for the widening of interstitial space at certain sites (*). (F) Combined Ns-Ag-NC and TAA-treated group VII with normal histological architecture more or less similar to the control group except for dilatation of a few renal tubules (DT). (H&E Mic. Mag. x 200). N.B: Intact capsule (C), renal corpuscles containing glomerular tuft of capillaries (G), proximal convoluted tubules PCT (thin arrows), and distal convoluted tubules DCT (thick arrows)
