Reduced diaphragm thickness and central nuclei-containing myofibers in BmKO/mdx mice. (A) Representative images of H/E staining of diaphragm from 8, 12 and 20 weeks-old mdx and BmKO/mdx mice at 4X magnification. Scale bar: 200 μm. (B, C) Diaphragm thickness (B) and the percentage of central nuclei-containing myofibers (C) as measured from H/E histology cross sections in 8, 12 and 20-weeks-old mdx and BmKO/mdx mice (n=4-6/group). (D-F) Distribution of diaphragm cross-section area as percentage of total myofibers in 8 (D), 12 (E) and 20-weeks-old (F) mdx and BmKO/mdx mice (n=4-6/group).
