muscle
• muscles show regenerative fibers with centralized nuclei
|
• in 4-week old mice
|
• mice exhibit severe muscular dystrophy phenotype as indicated by fibrosis, inflammatory infiltration, and regenerative fibers with centralized nuclei at 4 weeks of age
|
• mice exhibit an approximate 50% decrease in the specific and absolute tetanic force in the extensor digitorum longus muscle at 4 weeks of age
|
behavior/neurological
• grip strength analysis indicates a decrease in muscle strength in 8 week old mice
|
