Fig. 6

IGF2 improves the mitochondrial ultrastructure of oocytes from obese mice (A) Mitochondrial micrograph of ND, HFD, and HFD + IGF2 oocytes at 5000x magnification examined by TEM. Scale bar = 1 μm. Note the normal mitochondria (Mn) and the vacuolated mitochondria (Mv). B Numbers of mitochondria per defined region of interest (ROI) in ND, HFD, and HFD + IGF2 oocytes. *p < 0.05. One-way ANOVA test was used for statistical analysis. Error bars indicate the SEM. C Mitochondrial micrograph from control and IGF2-treated oocytes at 60,000x magnification. Inner membrane (IM), outer membrane (OM), and intermembrane space (IMS). Scale bar = 100 nm
