Figure 2. Hepatic mitochondrial content and enzyme activity.

Figure 2

The activity of mitochondrial enzymes β-HAD (A) and citrate synthase (B) and the protein content of cytochrome c (C) were significantly lower in the livers of LCR rats than HCR rats at 25 weeks of age. D, representative immunofluorescence photomicrographs (magnification = 400×) for mitochondrial marker CPS1 (red) showed granular staining patterns in liver sections. The LCR livers visibly display decreased CPS-1 staining compared to the HCR at 25 weeks of age.
