Figure 3
The pathological changes of rat adrenal medulla in response to induced asthma and KTR treatment. Representative micrographs (HE staining, 100x) of adrenal medulla in control rats (a), asthmatic rats (b), and KTR-treated asthmatic rats (c). Representative electron micrographs (10000x) of adrenal medulla in control rats (d), asthmatic rats (e), and KTR-treated asthmatic rats (f). The arrows show vacuolar degeneration (black arrow), chromaffin granules (red arrow), swollen cytoplasm, and mitochondria (blue and white arrows), respectively.
