Figure 1.
The accumulation of LCFAs in the quadriceps muscles from sarcopenia patients. LCFAs were extracted from non-sarcopenic (Control) and sarcopenic tissues (n=10 for each group). The LCFA concentrations were measured in the hexane layer mixture using GC-MS and included PDA (A), stearic acid (B), palmitic acid (C), nonadecanoic acid (D), arachidic acid (E) and behenic acid (F). Statistical significance was denoted by * for P<0.05 and *** for P<0.001.
