Quercetin Isolated from Toona sinensis Leaves Attenuates Hyperglycemia and Protects Hepatocytes in High-Carbohydrate/High-Fat Diet and Alloxan Induced Experimental Diabetic Mice

Figure 4

Transmission electron microscopy of hepatocytes of normal and diabetic mice. At the end of experimental period, the mice were sacrificed and the hepatic tissues were sectioned for the transmission electron microscopic studies. Transmission electron micrographs of (a) normal, (b) normal + QTL, (c) diabetic, and (d) diabetic + QTL treated mice’s hepatic tissue sections were showed at 10,000x magnification. Endoplasmic reticulum (ER), glycogen (G), and mitochondria (M).
