EGCG inhibits pressure overload-induced myocardial remodeling in mouse hearts. (A) Stereoscopy images of complete hearts. (B) Hematoxylin and eosin-stained longitudinal sections of heart tissue. (C) Sections of left ventricles stained with Masson’s stain. Scale bar, 100 µm. (D) Echocardiography M-mode imaging. M-mode images obtained from short-axis measurements were used to evaluate left ventricle function. Red, diastolic left ventricular diameter; green, systolic left ventricular diameter. EGCG, epigallocatechin gallate; TAC, transverse aortic constriction.
