Abstract
Giant mitochondria in hepatocytes that have the average size of nuclei can be consistently produced in the liver of weanling mice by feeding them cuprizone (bis-cyclohexanone oxaldihydrazone). The simplicity of the procedure and the consistency of the results make the feeding of cuprizone a new and useful experimental tool for the study of mitochondrial metabolism.Entities:
