Fig. 4

A Photograph showed the measured morphometric parameters in the renal corpuscles. B Histogram showed that the number of the renal corpuscles per unit area significantly decreased in diclofenac sodium (DS) group compared to the control (Ctrl) group, and curcumin (Cur) restored the number of renal corpuscles to normal. 3C: Histogram showed that the number of glomerular podocytes significantly decreased in DS group while oral supplementation of Cur prevented this decrease and kept the normal number of glomerular podocytes. Results are expressed as mean ± SEM (6 mice/group). Data are analyzed by one-way ANOVA followed by Duncan posttest. aindicates significant difference between control and DS groups at p < 0.05; bindicates significant difference between DS and DS + Cur groups at p < 0.05
