Fusion parameters from myotube differentiation are not altered in the LGMD2B, but there is a predominance of myotubes with fewer myonuclei. (A) Fusion index, a percentage calculated by the ratio between the number of myonuclei inside myotubes and the total number of myonuclei in the field, indicates no differences between control and LGMD2B myotubes. (B) Distribution of the proportion of myotubes containing different number of myonuclei, showing that most myotubes from the control cell line have more nuclei than the myotubes from the LGMD2B cell lines.
