Electron micrograph of a section of the liver from a control group showing normal hepatocyte structure, nucleus (N) with prominent nucleolus (Nu), numerous mitochondria (M), rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER), and Kupffer cell (K) with elongated nucleus b DMBA-treated group demonstrating abnormal hepatocyte with several lucent and degenerated areas of the cytoplasm (black arrows) degenerated (RER), highly damaged mitochondria (M) with ill-defined cristae. c DMBA + Art-treated group demonstrating abnormal hepatocyte with lucent and degenerated area of the cytoplasm (black arrows) and damaged mitochondria (M). d DMBA + Ech-treated group demonstrating relatively little normal appearance of hepatocyte with few lucent and degenerated area of the cytoplasm (black arrows) and normal rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER). e Art + DMBA-treated group demonstrating moderately normal hepatocyte with normal nucleus (N), nucleolus (Nu) and endoplasmic reticulum (RER) with nearly normal appearance, except little degenerated areas (black arrows) f (DMBA + Ech) group demonstrating hepatocyte with nearly normal cytoplasm appearance, nucleus (N), mitochondria (M) and (RER) (Scale bar = 2 μm)
