MeHg Causes Ultrastructural Changes in Mitochondria and Autophagy in the Spinal Cord Cells of Chicken Embryo

Figure 3

Effect of MeHg on mitochondrial fusion and fission profiles in spinal cord cells of E10 embryos. Electron micrograph of the mantle layer in control and MeHg-treated embryos. The graphs show the number of the fusion (g) and fission (h) mitochondrial profiles in both analyzed groups. Mitochondrial fusion (black arrow) and fission (arrowhead). Indicates P < 0.05. Scale bars: (a–f) 200 ηm.
