Hippocampal Mitochondrial Abnormalities Induced the Dendritic Complexity Reduction and Cognitive Decline in a Rat Model of Spinal Cord Injury
Figure 3
High levels of ROS induced mitochondrial damage in hippocampal neurons. (a, b) The mitochondrial structures of hippocampal neurons were observed by (TEM). Arrows, normal mitochondria. Arrowheads, damaged mitochondria. (above) or 1 μm (below). (c, d) Mitochondrial ROS was assessed by flow cytometry using MitoSOX (data were presented as , , two-way ANOVA, NS: no significance, , ).
