Optical microscopy of Yasue-stained sections (A,B,D,E) and FE-SEM (C,F) characterization of adipocytes and sweat glands. (A) ESRD sample and (B) ESRD + CUA sample showing calcification of adipocyte membranes. (C) FE-SEM of micrometric calcified spherules along the adipocyte membranes (arrowhead) in ESRD + CUA sample. (D) ESRD sample and (E) ESRD + CUA sample showing calcifications of sweat glands basal lamina. (F) FE-SEM of sweat glands basal lamina with micrometric calcified spherule (arrowhead) in ESRD + CUA sample.
