Fig. 7From: Protective effect of curcumin on the kidney of diclofenac sodium-challenged mice: apoptotic, redox potential and histopathological outcomesPhotomicrograph of superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2) (A–C) and glutathione reductase (GR) (D–F) immunostaining in the kidney. A The kidney of control (Ctrl) group showed slight SOD2 immunostaining in the renal corpuscles (RC) and tubules (PT). B The kidney of diclofenac sodium (DS) group showed mild SOD2 immunoexpression (arrowheads) in the renal corpuscles (RC) and tubules (PT). C The kidney of diclofenac sodium + curcumin (DS + Cur) group showed slight SOD2 immunostaining in the renal corpuscles (RC) and tubules (PT). D The kidney of Ctrl group showed slight GR immunostaining in the renal corpuscles (RC) and tubules (PT). E The kidney of DS group showed mild GR immunoexpression (arrowheads) in the renal corpuscles (RC) and tubules (PT). F The kidney of DS + Cur group showed slight GR immunostaining in the renal corpuscles (RC) and tubules (PT). Original magnification, X200, scale bar = 100 μmBack to article page
