Figure 5From: Dystrophin deficiency in canine X-linked muscular dystrophy in Japan (CXMDJ) alters myosin heavy chain expression profiles in the diaphragm more markedly than in the tibialis cranialis muscle Expression of fast type, slow type, and developmental MHCs in diaphragms of a normal or a CXMD J dog at 1, 2, 4, 6 months, and 1 year old. Note that slow MHC fibers were increased markedly in the affected diaphragms after 6 months old, while fast MHC fibers were decreased. Bar: 200 μm.Back to article page
