Biceps femoris muscle fiber diameter (µm) (A) and the average fibrous connective tissue and muscle fiber area in WT and DMDmdx rats (percentage) (B). DMDmdx muscle structure, PSR stain, 40x (C) and WT muscle structure, PSR stain, 40x (D). DMDmdx – Sprague-Dawley DMDmdx rats; WT – Sprague-Dawley wild-type rats; PSR – Picrosirius red. The dots represent the mean; the boxes – the standard error; the whiskers – the standard deviation. All comparisons between DMDmdx and WT rats are statistically significant (p < 0.05; n = 7 per genotype).
