Representative photomicrographs of H&E staining of mouse liver tissues. (a),(f): Normal appearance of hepatic tissue in the control group. (b),(g): Clear Cr-induced alterations with loss of intact liver plates, hepatocyte vacuolization, and chromatin condensation. (c),(h): TW1-1 only group with no apparent histological alterations. (d),(i): Hepatocyte vacuolization and chromatin condensation were greatly alleviated in Cr(□) + TW1-1 group. (e),(j): Moderate histological restoration in Cr(VI) + LZU-D2 group. Magnification in panels (a) to (e) is 12.6×, and magnification in (f) to (j) is 25.2×. Scale bar in e represents 100 μm; scale bar inj represents 50 μm.
