Figure 1. Total RNA oxidation increases with atrophy in rat gastrocnemius muscle.

RNA (A) and DNA (B) oxidation in gastrocnemius muscles of 6 and 32 month (mo) old control (unfilled bars) and hind limb suspended (HS; hatched bars) rats is shown. For RNA (A), a main effect for age and HS was observed. The * indicates a significant difference for HS within the age group.
