GH therapy improves neuromuscular innervation and reduces muscle atrophy. (A–C) Representative confocal images (20x) of median-nerve innervated flexor muscles immunostained for DAPI (blue), α-β-III-Tubulin (green), and α-bungarotoxin (red). (D) Quantification of the total number of the motor endplates and the number of co-stained reinnervated motor endplates. (E–H) Representative confocal images (20x) of median-nerve innervated flexor muscle immunostained for laminin. I) Quantification of the cross-sectional muscle area.
