Fig. 3From: Treatment with rGDF11 does not improve the dystrophic muscle pathology of mdx miceAssessment of muscle function. Isometric tetanic contraction was assessed in the isolated TA muscles from GDF11- and vehicle-injected mdx mice, in the presence or absence of CTX injury. No significant changes were observed in absolute force (F0) (a), specific force (sF0) (b), and fatigue index (c). No changes were observed in muscle weight or CSA (d, e, respectively)Back to article page
