The Effect of Iloprost and N-Acetylcysteine on Skeletal Muscle Injury in an Acute Aortic Ischemia-Reperfusion Model: An Experimental Study

Figure 4

Appearance of gastrocnemius muscle in the iloprost group: congestion in capillaries (arrow) and leukocyte infiltration between muscle fibers (arrow head). Reduction in edema and fibrosis (star) (H&E staining, bar 100 μm), cellular swelling and necrosis (star) (H&E staining, bar 20 μm), cellular swelling, necrosis (arrow head), leukocyte infiltration in muscle fibers (arrow), fibrosis (star) (H&E staining, bar 10 μm), leukocyte infiltration between muscle fibers (arrow) and fibrosis (star), and congestion in capillaries (arrow head) (H&E staining, bar 50 μm).
