Pathological staining of different tissues. (A) Photomicrographs of epididymal adipose tissue were obtained at a magnification of 200x using H&E staining. Liver tissue sections were subjected to H&E (B) and Oil Red O (C), and microstructures were visualized at a magnification of × 200, respectively. The presence of lipid droplet formation is indicated by black arrows, while fatty degeneration with edema is denoted by blue arrowheads. Additionally, the presence of inflammatory cell infiltration is highlighted by yellow arrows. (D) Kidney tissue sections were stained with H&E and microstructures were visualized at × 200 magnification. The presence of diffuse swelling is indicated by black arrows, and the presence of inflammatory cell infiltration is highlighted by yellow arrows. (E) H&E - stained micrographs of colon tissue were observed at ×200 magnification. Black arrows represent the presence of inflammatory cell infiltration, and green arrows indicate colonic muscularis propria.
