muscle
• at 3 weeks, mononuclear cell infiltration within muscles occurs unlike in wild-type mice
|
• mice exhibit muscular hypertrophy (tibialis anterior, gastrocnemius, and quadriceps femoris) compared with wild-type mice
|
• at 20 weeks
|
• 1.5 times
|
• at 2, 8, and 20 weeks
|
• mice exhibit stripes of degenerating muscle fibers unlike wild-type mice that worsens with age
• muscle degeneration is observed at 2 weeks of age along with muscle regeneration
|
• at 2 weeks in the soleus and tibialis anterior
• at 8 weeks in the quadricep
|
• with extensive muscle degeneration and regeneration
|
growth/size/body
