Poststroke myostatin expression is down-regulated in stroke-affected gastrocnemius muscle after RAMT treatment. A) Myostatin mRNA expression in stroke-affected gastrocnemius muscle was significantly lower in RAMT+ vs. RAMT rats on poststroke d 14. *P < 0.05 vs. RAMT. B) Representative myostatin (red) in contralateral and stroke-affected gastrocnemius muscle on poststroke d 14. Sections counterstained with DAPI (blue). Scale bar, 50 μm. C) Quantification (% area) of myostatin expression in contralateral and stroke-affected gastrocnemius muscle of RAMT (black bars) and RAMT+ (white bars) rats. Data are means ± sd (n = 7). *P < 0.05 vs. contralateral within group; P < 0.05 vs. stroke-affected RAMT.
