Cardiotoxicity evaluation after repeated high-dose of CNPs treatment. A Whole heart tissues stained with H&E after multi-dose of 10, 22.5 or 90 mg/kg CNPs. Right panel indicates the fluorescence imaging of heart tissues after treatments in the same protocol. Histological analyses were performed on day 7 after treatments. B, C Heart tissues stained with Masson’s trichrome after multi-dose of 10, 22.5 or 90 mg/kg CNPs. D Quantative analysis for the fibrotic areas (%) over whole region of heart tissues. Heart tissues were collected from the mice on day 7 after multi-dose of 10, 22.5 or 90 mg/kg CNPs (n = 5). E The levles of TNF-α, IL1b and IL-6 in heart tissues on day 7 after multi-dose of 10, 22.5 or 90 mg/kg CNPs
