Ultrastructural Changes of Airway in Murine Models of Allergy and Diet-Induced Metabolic Syndrome
Figure 5
Mitochondrial ultrastructural changes in bronchial epithelia of high-fat- or high-fructose-fed mice. TEM images of airway epithelia of normal murine lung (a) show normal mitochondria (green arrows) with well-developed cristae and dense matrix compared to airway epithelia of high-fat- or high-fructose-fed mice which show the reduced number or loss of cristae (green arrows). Images are at 10500X magnification.
