Figure 5

Major histocompatibility complex class 1 (MHC-1) in skeletal muscle tissue. (A) A representative florescent image of 8 μm thick muscle cross-sections stained for MHC-I. All four images were taken from muscle samples from the same subject 1 day before bout 1 (B1) of damaging lengthening contractions (LC) (−1d), 2 days after B1 (B1 + 2d), 27 days after bout 1 (B1 + 27d) and 2 days after bout 2 (B2) (B2 + 2d). Arrowheads show MHC-I positive sarcolemmal immunoreactivity. Arrows show MHC-I positive sarcoplasmic staining. (B) Percent of total muscle section positive for MHC-I before and after B1 and B2 of LC. No significant differences observed (One-way repeated measures ANOVA with Tukey's HSD, p < 0.05). Scale bar = 100 μm.
