Immunolabeling of complement C3 on cross-sections of soleus muscles. A: sample from rat muscle experiencing unloading only. B: sample from rat experiencing 2 hours of reloading that shows C3 at the surface of muscle fibers. C: sample from rat experiencing 24 hours reloading that shows a reduction in C3 at the surface of muscle fibers, compared to 2 hour reloaded animals. Scale bar, 80 μm.
