Fig. 13

The figure shows the effects of arsenite on kidney tissues and the ameliorative effects of CoQ₁₀ and DMSA. Mice were administered with 15 mg/kg arsenite alone or alongside 200 mg/kg of CoQ₁₀ or 50 mg/kg DMSA independently or in combination. After 45 days’ post treatment, kidney samples from the five treatment groups; normal control (a), arsenite (b), arsenite+CoQ₁₀ (c), arsenite+DMSA (d) and arsenite+CoQ₁₀ + DMSA (e) were collected and processed for histological examination using H&E staining. G-glomerulus, T-renal tubules, C- congestion. Arrow show tubular cell vacuolation
