Figure 3.

Sequential histopathological changes in the choroid plexus after hepatic encephalopathy (n = 3). Control (A–C), 3H (D–F) and 24H (G–I) indicate representative images for the brain tissues from vehicle-treated animals (at 3 h) and from animals at 3 h and 24 h after ammonia treatment, respectively. A,D,G are low-magnification views of the hematoxylin-eosin stained choroid plexus. B,E,H are enlarged images of the sections highlighted in black boxes in A,D,G, respectively. C,F,I show enlarged views of the black boxes in B,E,H, respectively, and arrowheads indicate blood vessels while arrows indicate separated epithelial cells. Scale bars = 10 μm.
