Ultrastructure of hippocampal mitochondria.

(A–C) Ultrastructure of mitochondria in the control (A), model (B) and AOAA remedy groups (C), respectively (scanning electron microscopy, original magnification, 10,000 ×). Black arrows indicate intact mitochondria without vacuoles, cristae cracks, swelling or deformation. White arrows indicate damaged mitochondria. They contain vacuoles and the cristae are broken and deformed. The mitochondria in the control group were intact without vacuoles, cristae cracks or swelling. The mitochondria in the model group showed vacuoles, cristae cracks and swelling. Mitochondrial ultrastructure was improved after AOAA treatment. AOAA: Aminooxyacetic acid.
