Rapid Determination of Myosin Heavy Chain Expression in Rat, Mouse, and Human Skeletal Muscle Using Multicolor Immunofluorescence Analysis

Figure 4

Bubble plot showing SDH activity, GPD activity, and CSA for each fiber type in mouse, rat, and human skeletal muscles.

Panel A, relative fiber type-specific SDH activity, GPD activity, and CSA for ten mouse skeletal muscles. Panel B, relative fiber type-specific SDH activity, GPD activity, and CSA for ten rat skeletal muscles. Panel C, relative fiber type-specific SDH activity, GPD activity, and CSA for human VL muscle. Data presented in this figure are from Tables 3, 4, and 5. Bubble size represents the relative CSA within a species. SDH and GPD activity are expressed relative to the values obtained in type I fibers (soleus for mouse and rat, VL for human) and assigned a reference value of 1.0.
