Expression of LM α Chains in Human Skeletal Muscle

(A) LM immunofluorescence using anti-α2 chain antibodies is shown in red. PAX7 was used as satellite cell maker (green) and DAPI was used a nuclear maker (blue). Left panel shows lower magnification images. Arrowheads indicate PAX7⁺ cells located between a myofiber and basement membrane, labeled with LMα2 staining. Scale bars represent 50 μm (left figure) and 100 μm (right figure).

(B) High-magnification view of LMα3, α4, and α5 expression around satellite cells. Scale bar represents 5 μm.
