Mitochondrial muscle density. (A). Quantification of total mitochondria muscle density in mid-belly fragments of the right soleus from untrained ovariectomized rats (UN-OVX), ovariectomized rats treated with Estradiol replacement (E2-OVX), and trained ovariectomized rats (TR-OVX). N = 72 fields from three animals per group. (B–D) Transmission electron micrographs (TEM) of transverse sections of muscle fibers (ultra-structural view), in which mitochondria is highlighted in green. Data are reported as mean ± S.E.M. 95% confidence interval (CI). Effect size (ES) *p < 0.01. One-way ANOVA followed by Dunnet posthoc test.
