Electron micrographs of the control rat cortex. a Glomerulus with several capillary loops (C), mesangial cell with dense matrix (M), and several podocyte processes (P) and endothelia cell nucleus (E). b DCT with elongated mitochondria (M), basal enfolding (arrow head), and very few microvilli (arrow). c PCT with characteristic microvilli (Mv), elongated mitochondria (M) in between the basal enfolding, lysosomes (L), and vacuoles (V). d CT with poorly stained clear cell (Cc) and more electron dense intercalated cell (Ic).
