Extracellular matrix deposition and plantaris fiber size remained constant following 8 weeks of wheel running irrespective of satellite cell ablation. a–d Plantaris muscle cross sections were histochemically stained for WGA (binds N-acetyl-d-glucosamine; red). Scale bar = 50 μm. e Quantification of area occupied by WGA normalized to muscle fiber. f Mean plantaris muscle fiber cross-sectional area (CSA) was quantified by tracing dystrophin-labeled fibers (not shown). Values are means ± SE. Significance was set at p ≤ 0.05
