Figure 7.
No pathology was found in nerve innervating the masseter muscle. (A) Scatter plot showing correlations of internode length versus fiber diameter correlations in nmd and wild-type controls. No differences were found in r2 regression correlation values between wild-type and nmd mice. (B) Mean fiber diameter comparisons between wild-type and nmd mice showed no statistical differences (P = 0.095). (C) Comparisons of mean internode length also revealed no differences (P = 0.123) between wild-type and nmd mice. (D) Quantification of abundance of fibers with myelin defects revealed no difference (P = 0.528) between wild-type and nmd mice. Individual comparisons were analyzed by Student’s t-test. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM. n = 3 animals per treatment.
