Fig. 4: Telomere length quantification of non-myogenic muscle-resident cells.

a Representative image of endothelial cell (CD31 + ; green), telomere staining (PNA probe; red), and nuclei (DAPI; blue). Scale bar: 10 μm. b Calculated telomere length of endothelial cells in gastrocnemius muscles from control, HLS, IR, and HLS + IR mice. Three mice per experimental group were analyzed. Violin plots are depicting median with 25th and 75th quartiles. Data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA and Tukey’s multiple comparison test of means. Adjusted p values are displayed.
