Figure 3. Body weight and muscle mass in ethanol-fed mice. (A) Gastrocnemius weight and (B) Gastrocnemius to body weight ratio in ethanol-fed mice compared with pair-fed controls. (C) Representative histological cryosections of gastrocnemius muscle oriented in the longitudinal direction and cross-section from ethanol-fed and pair-fed control mice, and histograms showing mean diameter and cross-sectional area from at least 30 sections from each animal. (D)Total skeletal muscle protein content per mg muscle weight in ethanol-fed and pair-fed control mice. *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01. n = 6 mice in each group.
