Morphological and biochemical effects of weekend alcohol consumption in rats: Role of concentration and gender

Figure 4 Hepatic histology of the group of males with weekend alcohol consumption at 5%. A: Image of the control group; B-D: Images of the group of males with alcohol consumption at 5%. A: The uniformity of the structures is observed to be conserved (40 ×); B: Presence of fine and thick steatosis (pigmentation-diminution zone in the cytoplasm), inflammation present with leukocytes in single file around the portal vein (yellow arrows) (40 ×); C: Important inflammation is observed, represented by leukocytes around the portal vein and in the Bile Canaliculus (BC) (yellow arrows) (40 ×); D: Fine as well as thick steatosis is observed (pigmentation-diminution zone in the cytoplasm), as well as leukocyte infiltrate (yellow arrow) (100 ×). V: Portal Vein; BC: Bile canaliculus. Hematoxylin and Eosin stain.
