Fibrosis in mouse ovarian midsections stained by picrosirius red. (a) Representative images of young, reproductively aged and apocynin-treated aged mice. Note increased deposition of collagen fibers in the stroma of reproductively aged mice (arrows) and antioxidant-mediated amelioration (arrowheads). (b) Relative quantification of stained area assuming young mice equals 1 ( per group). Y: young; AG: aged; AA: aged apocynin. . Data are presented as . , compared with young female mice; #, compared with reproductively aged female mice.
