Figure 7: Micrograph of M1 cerebral region (layer V) of Wistar rat (Golgi stain, ×250) (a) Control (2 ml/kg distilled water) group with normal histoarchitecture. A: Axon, D: Dendrite, L: Lateral dendrite. (b) Group administered HgCl2 (5 mg/kg) with distortion in the histoarchitecture – Neuronal process loss. S: Stellate cell, P: Pyramidal cell. (c) Group administered Vitamin C (100 mg/kg) and HgCl2 (5 mg/kg) with relatively normal histoarchitecture. F: Fusiform cell. (d) Group administered AFPD (250 mg/kg) and HgCl2 (5 mg/kg) with distortion in the histoarchitecture – Neuronal process loss. P: Pyramidal cell. (e) Group administered AFPD (500 mg/kg) and HgCl2 (5 mg/kg) with relatively normal histoarchitecture. (f) Group administered AFPD (1000 mg/kg) and HgCl2 (5 mg/kg) with mild distortion in the histoarchitecture – Neuronal process loss. AFPD: Aqueous fruit pulp extract of Phoenix dactylifera |
