Neuromuscular transmission and neuromuscular junction morphology following lengthening contractions in the TA muscle from mdx mice. a Compound muscle action potential (CMAP) (amplitude) in response to 3 Hz nerve stimulation. b CMAP (amplitude) in response to 10 Hz nerve stimulation. c–f representative images of neuromuscular junction morphology using α-bungarotoxin staining. Bar = 20 μm. CMAP compound muscle action potential, Mdx + 9LC after nine lengthening contractions, Mdx LC lengthening contractions in mdx mice, Mdx and C57 before lengthening contractions. n = 6–13 per group for a and b
