Collagen staining in the right ventricle. Representative photomicrographs of collagen staining in the right ventricle detected using Masson’s trichrome staining. Images were captured with a microscope at × 400 magnification, and the scale bars in lower right corner represent 50 µm. A: Air/CLZ- (control), rats exposed to ambient air and fed rat chow without CLZ; B: MCT21/CLZ-, rats injected with MCT and fed rat chow with CLZ; C: MCT21/CLZ +, rats injected with MCT and fed rat chow without CLZ; D: CH/CLZ-, rats exposed to chronic hypoxia and fed rat chow without CLZ; E: CH/CLZ +, rats exposed to chronic hypoxia and fed rat chow with CLZ. Fibrosis scale: 0 = normal, (+) = mild, and (++) = moderate. The blue color indicates collagen (allows)
