Figure 8

True shape of spherical mitochondria observed after CCCP treatment. Ring-shaped mitochondria were observed in fluorescent microscopy, as shown in the upper row, 10 min after CCCP treatment. Multiple void-like regions (or holes in rings) were sometimes observed. According to our observations, 1–3 lumina were present in TEM photomicrographs (middle row).
