Effects of intermittent heat stress and/or 14 days of denervation on the morphological properties of soleus muscle fibers. Mean (± SD, n = 8 per group) fiber cross‐sectional areas (CSAs) are shown in A. Representative images of cross‐sections in sham‐operated and denervated muscles are shown in B. Muscle sections were stained for laminin to analyze fiber CSAs. The frequency distribution of fibers with different CSAs in sham‐operated (C) and denervated (D) muscles are also shown. At least 600 fibers in each muscle were analyzed. H and D: main effect of heat stress and denervation, respectively. See Figure 2 for other abbreviations.
