Identification of the differences between LD and SOL muscles. (A) Photographs of the LD and SOL muscles. (B) The mRNA expression levels of MYH7, MYH2, MYH1, and MYH4 in LD and SOL muscles were determined via qRT‒PCR (n = 4). (C) The fiber types in the LD and SOL muscles were stained and enumerated. MYH7, MyH2, and MyH4 were used as markers of type I, type IIa, and type IIb fibers, respectively (n = 4). (D) Protein levels of MYH7, MYH2, MYH1, and MYH4 were measured via Western blotting in the LD and SOL muscles (n = 4). The results are presented as the means ± SEMs. The significance of differences between means was determined via an independent sample t test (*P < 0.05; **P < 0.01)
