From: Coenzyme Q10 protected against arsenite and enhanced the capacity of 2,3-dimercaptosuccinic acid to ameliorate arsenite-induced toxicity in mice

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
