Electron microscopy reveals loss of endothelial cells and activation of the remaining endothelial cells in acute allograft glomerulopathy on Day 18. A, Destruction of glomerular capillaries occur with loss of endothelial cells. Note the presence of apoptotic bodies in these areas (×5000). B, Marked swelling of the glomerular endothelium is found with loss of fenestration, indicative of activated endothelial cells (×5000).
