| Figure 1: Electron micrographs of mice cardiomyocytes: (a) The C group showing the outer and inner mitochondrial membranes preserved and plenty cristae with normal aspects (*); (b) The HF group showing irregular mitochondria (+), and presence of the residual body (arrows) probably formed by mitochondrial degeneration; (c) HF-ROS10 group, (d) HF-ROS20 group and (e) HF-ROS40 group. This groups (c), (d) and (e) show mitochondria with normal aspects (*), like the C group; (f), (g) and (h) show high magnification of the C group, HF group and HF treated group, respectively. In HF group is observed a thickest outer membrane (arrow head) and distortion, disruption and loss of the membranes of mitochondrial cristae (hollow arrow). |
