Table 1. Comparison of body weight, muscle weight and centronucleation in FVB and mdx/FVB mice.

Data shown as mean ± standard error of mean. a, significantly different from the 3-m-old FVB control group; b, significantly different from the 6-m-old FVB control group.

Abbreviations: EDL, extensor digitorum longus; CSA, cross sectional area; TA, tibialis anterior; CN, central nucleation.

Sample size: Body weight n=11-14 for FVB, n=11-19 for mdx/FVB; EDL weight/CSA n=14-24 for FVB, n=12-18 for mdx/FVB; TA weight/CSA n=8-10 for FVB, n=8-9 for mdx/FVB; CN analysis n= 10-11 for each strain.
