Description |
The study aims to determine if confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) is able to distinguish structural and functional changes in extraocular muscles (EOMs) of hyperthyroid mice known to differ from normal controls. We employed CLSM on EOMs using two-photon excited fluorescence (TPEF), second-harmonic image microscopy (SHIM), mitotracker, JC-1 and FITC-phalloidin fluorescence staining to quantify and localize myofibrils, mitochondria, and actin-myosin complex abnormalities of EOMs. |
