Left ventricular fibrosis. Left ventricular a collagen content quantified biochemically, b collagen area fraction assessed by digital image software and c interstitial and d perivascular fibrosis scores evaluated on histological sections stained with picro sirius red with Weigert’s iron hematoxylin nuclear staining. SD = fed standard chow, FFC = fed fat/fructose/cholesterol-rich diet, FFC/SD = dietary normalization. Black bars represent median and interquartile range (25th–75th). * = P < 0.05
