Fig. 12From: Cytotoxicity associated with acute and chronic administration of synthetic cannabinoids “Strox” in the brain, liver, heart, and testes of male albino rats: histological and immunohistochemical studyPhotomicrographs of the longitudinal sections of left ventricular heart muscles stained with SR (×400). A and B Negative and positive control groups show few collagen fibers between cardiac muscle fibers (arrow). While acute, chronic, and chronic withdrawal groups C, D, and E: reveal increased collagen fibers between cardiac muscle fibers compared to the control group (arrows). F: showing the mean area % of collagen fibers in all groups. Data are expressed as mean ∓ SD; P≤ 0.001 for control groups vs acute, chronic and chronic withdrawal groupsBack to article page
