Fig. 4From: Liver-specific NG37 overexpression leads to diet-dependent fatty liver disease accompanied by cardiac dysfunctionHistological and phase-transitional characterization of enlarged livers from HiF diet Alb-NG37 mice. a Enlarged livers of HiF diet Alb-NG37 mice exhibited increased steatotic vesicles in hepatocytes in comparison to c the livers of normal-diet Alb-NG37mice. b The livers of HiF diet Alb-NG37 mice demonstrate Maltese cross activity. The transition from liquid crystal phase (e) to crystalline phase (d–f) was documented on samples extracted from enlarged Alb-NG37 livers. g–i A schematic of the crystallization process from an initiating “seed” crystal is presented in step to the photographed process in panels d–f.
