Figure 6

Appearance of the gastrocnemius muscle in the NAC group: loss of striation in muscle fibers, necrosis (star), and fibrosis (arrow) (H&E staining, bar 50 μm). Fibrosis (arrow head), congestion in capillaries (star), and leukocyte infiltration (arrow) (H&E staining, bar 20 μm). Loss of striation in muscle fibers (star), cellular swelling, necrosis, congestion in capillaries (arrow head), and leukocyte infiltration (arrow) (H&E staining, bar 20 μm). Interfibrillar fibrosis (arrow head) and congestion in capillaries (star) (H&E staining, bar 10 μm).
