Characteristics of mice and EDL muscles infected by AV.RSV.AP

					EDL characteristics at harvest
Strain	AV.RSV.AP	Na	Age at infection	Age at harvest	Weight (mg)	CSA (mm2)b	Transduction (%)
BL10	No	4	N/Ac	77 days	8.00 ± 0.29	1.51 ± 0.05	N/Ac
BL10	Yes	4	43 days	77 days	8.30 ± 0.16	1.56 ± 0.04	56.75 ± 5.88d
mdx	No	5	N/Ac	74 days	11.34 ± 0.33	2.05 ± 0.06	N/Ac
mdx	Yes	5	42 days	74 days	11.36 ± 0.16	2.02 ± 0.07	53.60 ± 3.88d

^aStudy was performed in paired legs. The left EDL muscle was infected with AV.RSV.AP, the right EDL muscle of the same mouse was not infected with AAV.

^bCross-sectional area (calculated according to fiber length).

^cNot applicable.

^dThere was no statistical difference in transduction efficiency between BL10 and mdx.
