Number and proliferation of SCs from non-exercised WT, Nrf2^tKO, mdx, and Nrf2^tKOmdx hind limb muscles. (a) Pax7 staining in GM; representative photos. (b) Quantification of the ratio of Pax7⁺ cells per myofibre; n = 3-5. (c) Number of MyoD⁺ SCs (CD45⁻CD31⁻Sca1⁻α7integrin⁺MyoD⁺); flow cytometry; n = 4-5. (d) Number of proliferating MyoD⁺ SCs (CD45⁻CD31⁻Sca1⁻α7integrin⁺MyoD⁺Ki67⁺); flow cytometry; n = 5; (e) representative two-parameters flow cytometry dot plots. The data are presented as mean +/− SEM; *p ≤ 0.05; one-way ANOVA with Tukey’s post hoc test. The scale bars represent 100 μm
