Figure 3. Effect of in vivo MDSC transplantation and NMES on the number of dystrophin positive fibers in dystrophic muscles.

Figure 3

(A) Total number of dys+ in each of the experimental groups (n = 5–6/group). (B) Dystrophin immunostaining in the tissue cross-sections of TA muscles of mdx mice 4 weeks after transplantation (40× magnification). (C) Correlation between the number of dys+ and CD31+ cells across our 4week transplantation groups (R2 = 0.655; p = 0.004; n = 9). * Denotes significantly different when compared to PBS counterparts control (p<0.05). § Denotes significantly different when compared to MDSC 4-week group (p<0.05).
