Treatment with blocking antibodies against P/E‐selectin increases neutrophil, but not macrophage content after 2 days, in contralateral muscles that have not been subjected to lengthening contractions. Neutrophils (Gr‐1+ cells) *P < 0.001 (A). Representative partial section of muscle from uninjured mouse (B) and mouse injected with P/E‐selectin blocking antibodies (C), Gr‐1 labeled. Macrophages (CD68+ cells) P = 0.854 by Mann–Whitney Rank Sum Test (D). Representative partial section of muscle from uninjured mouse (E) and mouse injected with P/E‐selectin blocking antibodies (F), CD68 labeled. Scale bars = 200 μm.
