Ctgf +/+ | Ctgf +/− | Ctgf −/− | P (Ctgf +/+ vs. −/−) | |
---|---|---|---|---|
MEPP amplitude (mV) | 3.24 ± 0.49 (n = 18) | 3.14 ± 0.47 (n = 26) | 3.89 ± 0.70 (n = 20) | 0.06 |
MEPP frequency (s−1) | 0.69 ± 1.03 (n = 18) | 0.65 ± 1.02 (n = 26) | 0.09 ± 0.10 (n = 20) | 0.01a |
The fifth CMAP area (%) | 98.75 ± 5.87 (n = 3) | 102.94 ± 15.45 (n = 5) | 55.66 ± 16.05 (n = 3) | 0.04a |
Miniature endplate potentials (MEPPs) were recorded from the left diaphragms of Ctgf +/+, Ctgf +/−, and Ctgf −/− mice at E18.5. Relative area of the fifth compound muscle action potential (CMAP) compared to the first CMAP at 2‐Hz stimulation of the sciatic nerve is indicated. Mean and SEM are indicated. Statistical significance was calculated by one‐way ANOVA.
P < 0.05 by post hoc Tukey test.
