Fig. 3

Lipid accumulation in female reproductive organs of obese mice. A-C Oil red O stains lipids in frozen histological slides. Differences in such staining indicated that the HFD fed mice uterus (A), ovary (B) and oviduct (C) contained much more lipids than their counterpart fed a ND. Data were evaluated from six independent experiments. Scale bar = 100 μm, 200 μm, respectively (arrows indicating lipids accumulation). D Quantitative analysis of Oil red O staining area (%) in slides. The results were reported as mean ± SD (n = 6, * P < 0.05, **P < 0.01)
