Mitochondrial Dysfunction: A Basic Mechanism in Inflammation-Related Non-Communicable Diseases and Therapeutic Opportunities
Figure 7
The nutrient availability of food in “natural” conditions for mice is likely low and near the condition known as calorie restriction. In the laboratory, however, mice are usually fed ad libitum, and certain biases cannot be discarded. However, mitochondria from mice fed a chow diet (a) display rapid morphological changes when mice are fed with high-fat diets (b).
