Fig. 2From: Simiao pill inhibits epithelial mesenchymal transition in a mouse model of chronic hyperuricemic nephropathy by inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome activationEffects of SMM on histopathological changes in chronic HN mice. Representative images of a Periodic acid–Schiff (400×) and b Masson trichrome staining (400×) to assess kidney histopathology. SMM decreased (c) histological severity scores and SMM improved histopathological changes in the kidneys in the chronic HN model (d) renal fibrosis in chronic HN mice (n = 8). **p < 0.005, ***P < 0.001, ****P < 0.0001Back to article page
