Figure 1. Photomicrograph of liver after subchronic exposure to beryllium followed by combination therapy of moringa oleifera. (A) Control rats showing well-formed chord arrangement of hepatocytes and central vein (HE, 400×). (B and C) Beryllium-treated rats showing central camal with debris, loss of chord arrangement, nuclei of hepatocytes are irregular, and hyperchromatic (HE, 100×, 400×). (D) Therapy with MO 150 mg showing large vesicular nuclei and proliferation of camamiculi (HE, 400×). (E) Therapy with MO+Pip showing congested central camal (HE, 400×). (F) Therapy with MO+Cur showing histoarchitecture of liver (HE, 400×).

Figure 2. Photomicrograph of kidney after subchronic exposure to beryllium followed by combination therapy of moringa oleifera. (A) Control rats showing well-formed uriniferous tubules (HE, 400×). (B and C) Beryllium-treated rats showing obliteration of lumen of uriniferous tubules, exfoliation of nuclei, and contraction of glomerulus (HE, 400×). (D) Therapy with MO 150 mg showing uriniferous tubules with lumen and epithelial cell are vacuolated (HE, 400×). (E) Therapy with MO+Pip showing well-formed glomerulus and better lumen of uriniferous tubules (HE, 400×). (F) Therapy with MO+Cur showing well-formed glomeruli (HE, 400×).
