Figure 3. Visualization of mitochondrial interaction in adult cardiac myocytes.
(A) EM images showed mitochondrial shapes (scale bars: 500 nm). (B) Two mitochondria move towards each other along the path indicated by dash lines. Right: position and distance of mitochondrion center indicated in left image at different time points. (C) mother mitochondrion separates into two daughter mitochondria. Right: position and distance of mitochondrion indicated in left image at different time points. (D) Transient mitochondrial fusion (scale bars: 2μm). (E) Percent of mitochondria exhibiting dynamic interaction.
