Maximum intensity projection confocal images of whole-mounted RG/mdx SOL muscle. a and e AChRs stained with BTX, which have a fragmented appearance (thin arrows) typical of mdx NMJs. b and f Transgenic mCherry label of myonuclei. There is a string of central myonuclei (asterisk) and sparse, scattered mCherry signal (thick arrow) in each panel. c and g DAPI-stained nuclei. Note that adjacent areas of the muscle tissue have drastically different amounts of various nuclei within the tissue in panel g. d Composite image of a-c. h Composite image of e-g. The mouse used for these images was homozygous for the H2B/GPI reporter allele. Scale bars 20 μm
