Fig. 2From: Increased plasma lipid levels exacerbate muscle pathology in the mdx mouse model of Duchenne muscular dystrophyStride length measurements and hindlimb hypertrophy on chow and Western diets. Representative images of Western diet-fed group gait-tracking at 7 months of age, scale bar 1 cm (a) and quantification of stride length in centimeter on chow and Western diets (b). Representative images of Western diet-fed hindlimbs at 7 months of age, scale bar 1 cm (c) and quantification of hindlimb width at 4 and 7 months on Western diet. Chow: WT (n = 3), ApoE (n = 5), mdx (n = 3), and mdx-ApoE (n = 9). Western: WT 4 m (n = 4), 7 m (n = 6); ApoE 4 m (n = 2), 7 m (n = 7–8); mdx 4 m (n=)7, (n = 5–7); and mdx-ApoE 4 m (n = 5), 7 m (n = 10).
