Effects of aging on ribosomal biogenesis during muscle denervation. Mice at 8months (8M) and 27months (27M) of age were subjected to denervation (right leg, DNV) and sham (contralateral left leg, CTL) surgeries, and TA and GAST muscles were collected 7days post-surgeries. (A,B) Quantification of total RNA (A) and 28S+18S rRNA (B) per mg muscle in TA. (C,D) Quantification of total RNA (C) and 28S+18S rRNA (D) per mg muscle in GAST. n=4–3 mice/group. Data are presented as mean±SEM. and expressed relative to 8M/CTL or as % of CTL (right panels). ***p<0.05 vs. CTL by two-way mixed ANOVA. #p<0.05 vs. 8M within the same surgery groups by two-way mixed ANOVA. ††p<0.01 and †††p<0.001 by unpaired t test. Inter, interaction between surgery effects (Surg) and age effects by two-way mixed ANOVA.
