(C) PF I (100 mg/kg): Display less interstitial space and intercalated disc (yellow arrow). (D) PF II (250 mg/kg): PF treated drug display only space in intercalated disc (yellow arrow). (E) PF III (500 mg/kg): Did not display any changes of the heart histopathology (F) Glibenclamide (10 mg/kg): Histopathology similar to the normal group.
