From: Transgenic overexpression of γ-cytoplasmic actin protects against eccentric contraction-induced force loss in mdx mice

Figure 2

Overexpression of γ-cytoplasmic actin does not alter muscle pathology or serum creatine kinase. (A) Representative muscle tissue cross-sections from mdx and mdx-transgenic (mdx-TG) mice (hematoxylin and eosin stain). (B) Centrally nucleated fibers (CNFs) in tibialis anterior (TA) and gastrocnemius muscles and serum creatine kinase (CK) levels from wild-type (WT), mdx and mdx-TG mice at 4 to 52 weeks of age. *Statistically significant difference from WT. #Statistically significant difference from mdx. &Statistically significant difference from WT (main effect of strain).
