Histologic examination of liver injury in the control mice (a) and the mice exposed to 40 (b), 42 (c), 44 (d), and 46°C (e) whole body heat stress by H&E staining. The experiment was repeated three times and the representative pictures obtained by a digital image-capture system are shown. C unstressed controls. f Necrotic areas. Representative findings from at least 10-mm2 tissue sections were counted for each mouse. Significance: *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01 when compared with controls. Scale bar 50 μm
