Figure 2

Liver ultrastructural changes assessed by transmission electron microscopy 3 or 24 h after administration of 1.5 ml/kg CCl4. (a, b) control mice liver; (c, d) CCl4-treated mice liver for 3 h and (e, f) CCl4-treated mice liver for 24 h. Magnification × 8000 for a, c and e and × 15 000 for b, d and f. Black arrows show the disruption of the mitochondrial membrane. White arrows indicate the presence of calcium crystalloids. lip, lipid droplet; ly, lysosome; mt, mitochondria; rer, rough endoplasmic reticulum.
