Figure 1

Repeated intramuscular glycerol injections induce fibrosis, but not fatty infiltration 14 days post final treatment. (a, b) Quantification of collagen deposition via picrosirius red + fast green staining indicates greater collagen content with glycerol treatment (squares: saline, circles: glycerol). (c, d) Quantification of fatty infiltration via Oil Red O (ORO) staining indicates no significant effect with glycerol treatment. N = 6 per group. (A) Main effect of group ****p < 0.01; #p = 0.047 represents a significant interaction effect between treatment group and sex. All data are reported as means ± 95% CI.
