γ-cytoplasmic actin expression in skeletal muscle and incorporation into thin filaments. (A) Quantitative Western blot analysis of γ-cytoplasmic (γ-cyto) actin levels in SDS extracts of mdx-TG murine skeletal muscle. Values are means +/- SEM. *Previously published values [23, 27]. (B) γ-cyto actin expression in mdx and mdx-TG gastrocnemius muscle cross-sections. (C) γ-cyto actin expression in thin filaments. Isolated myofibrils were costained with antibodies against γ-cyto actin and fast myosin heavy chain.
