Fig. 1

Representative hematoxylin and eosin-stained myocardial sections from Psammomys obesus gerbils fed with normal diet (a, b) or high fat diet (c-e) during 16 weeks. Myocardial sections were obtained at 1000-fold (a-d; Scale bars: 20 μm) and 400-fold (e; Scale bar: 50 μm) magnification. In normal diet-fed animals, myocardial sections showed normal histological heart architecture with myofibrils and muscle bundles (a, b). In 16-week high fat diet fed animals, hematoxylin and eosin stained-myocardial sections showed infiltrating inflammatory cells (c) and lipid accumulation (d, e)
