Light microscopic images of the spiral ligament and type II fibrocyte counts in the second turn of the cochlea. Compared with control group (A), fibrocytes in EGb group (B) were not reduced, while fibrocytes in 3-NP group (C) were reduced remarkably. The fibrocytes in EGb+3-NP group (D) were remarkably preserved compared with 3-NP group (A-D; H&E, ×100). (E) Fibrocytes in 3-NP group were reduced significantly compared with control group. Fibrocytes in EGb group were not reduced compared with control group. Fibrocytes in EGb+3-NP group were significantly preserved compared with 3-NP group. Error bar is a standard error. 3-NP, 3-nitropropionic acid. *Statistically significant difference between the two groups (P<0.05).
