Figure 3

Renal histopathology of cyclosporine-exposed rats on PASM stain (A) and TEM of popoff paraffin-embedded tissue (B). PASM stain revealed affected atrophic PTC with an increased lysosomal number and thickened basement membrane with surrounded mild cellular infiltration (marked within yellow dotted line). Distal tubules (yellow asterisks) are unaffected. On TEM, prominent PTC dysmorphic lysosomes (white asterisks) appear as large as nuclei after CNI administration.
