From: Iron overload exacerbates age-associated cardiac hypertrophy in a mouse model of hemochromatosis
Cardiac fibrosis in Hfe +/+ and Hfe −/− mice. Heart tissues from 12-month old Hfe −/− mice and their age-matched wild-type mice were fixed in 4% formalin, embedded in paraffin and sectioned into 5 µm thin slices, which were mounted on microscope slides for H&E and Masson’s trichrome staining. Arrows indicate the areas of fibrosis.
