Figure 5. — Organelle and cellular morphology of enterocytes in the villus region in the distal ileum of premature lambs imaged with TEM. Mitochondria (A; red arrows, mitochondrial cristae indicated by small red arrows) and RER (C; orange arrows) of enterocytes were normal in control animals. In IA UP exposed animals these organelles were morphologically disrupted (b, d). In addition, enterocytes containing small vacuoles (blue arrows) were observed in control animals (e), whereas larger vacuoles were detected in IA UP exposed lambs (f). Abbreviations: IA: intra-amniotic, L: lumen, RER: rough endoplasmic reticulum, TEM: transmission electron microscopy, UP: Ureaplasma Parvum.
