N.S. non-significant, *p < 0.05. (B) Histological changes in the fiber diameter in 12-month-old WT and DMD nude rats. (C) Representative images of hematoxylin & eosin (H&E) staining of the tibialis anterior (TA), quadriceps, and gastrocnemius muscle sections in 12-month-old WT and DMD nude rats. The symbols, ➡, ▼, and ▽, indicate necrotic myofibers, fibrosis, and adipogenesis, respectively. Scale bar = 50 µm.
