Fig. 4From: Harm of circadian misalignment to the hearts of the adolescent wistar ratsA Ratio of collagen fibers in heart sections obtained from the two groups of rats, measured by Masson’s trichrome staining. Levels of TNF-a (B), NF-κB (C), mTOR (D), IL-6 (E), and CASP3 (F) measured by immunohistochemical analysis of heart sections. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001 (two-sample t-test). G Masson’s trichrome staining of sections obtained from the two groups of rats. Immunohistochemical analysis of sections stained for TNF-a (H), NF-κB (I), mTOR (K), IL-6 (L), and CASP3 (M). Yellow–brown represents positive expression. J Staining with Oil Red O (scale: 1 mm). Abbreviations: CASP3, caspase 3; IL-6, interleukin-6; mTOR, mammalian target of rapamycin; NF-κB, nuclear factor-kappa B; TNF-a, tumor necrosis factor-alphaBack to article page
