Figure 1

Soleus muscle weight (A), muscle weight-to-body weight ratio (B), and mean muscle fiber cross sectional area (C) of ambulatory (amb, black bars), hind limb suspended (HS, white bars), and reloaded (HSRE, grey bars) rats at 6 and 32 months are depicted (n=8–10). Values are means ± SE; * indicates significant difference from ambulatory, # indicates significant difference from HS, and ‘a’ indicates a difference from young within the same group; p<0.05.
