a The tumor cell content in EOC ascites cells, and CA125/FITC staining of precipitated EOC ascites tumor cells. b Light microscope and electron microscope images from the no-chemotherapy group. Numerous autophagic vacuoles were noted in tumor cells, and the composition of organelles and floc in autophagic vacuoles was observed (arrow in black). c Light microscope and electron microscope images from the chemosensitive group. In tumor cells, apoptotic nuclei (triangle) were observed, the number of autophagosomes was decreased, karyopyknosis was detected, and autophagosomes exhibited medullary alterations (arrow in red)
