Cardiac mitochondrial morphology and density. a–f At 4 weeks after transplant, cardiac mitochondria were visualized under transmission electron microscopy in mice from Sham (a), MI + saline (b), MI + cardiomyocytes derived from ESCs (c), MI + cardiomyocytes derived from PSCs (d), MI + cardiomyocytes derived from IGF-II-PSCs (e), and MI + cardiomyocytes derived from the IGF-II-PSCs+IGF-II shRNA (f) groups, respectively. Representative images are shown. Scale bar, 20 nm. g Mitochondrion density quantification (normalized to Sham group). *p < 0.05 vs. any other group
