Electroacupuncture and Moxibustion Regulate Hippocampus Glia and Mitochondria Activation in DSS-Induced Colitis Mice

Figure 5

EA and moxibustion promote mitochondria activation. Representative labeling (a) and analysis (b–d) of mitochondria in the hippocampus CA1 (b), CA3 (c), and DG (d) regions of UC mice. Mitofilin (a marker of activated mitochondria); blue, DAPI nuclear staining (n = 5/group). Scale bar, 50 μm. Below: enlarged views of the white frames in the above panels highlight the cytoplasmic positive expression of mitochondria in the DG region of hippocampus.
