Fig. 4From: Autologous transplantation of adipose-derived stem cells improves functional recovery of skeletal muscle without direct participation in new myofiber formationAdipose-derived stem cell (ADSC) treatment positively affects skeletal muscle regeneration. a Representative cross sections of TA muscles at 7, 14, and 28 days following crush injury with ADSC or collagen transplantation. b Frequency of fiber size distribution for defined ranges of cross-sectional diameter in TA at 14 and 28 days following crush injury with ADSC or collagen transplantation and frequency of centrally nucleated fibers at 14 and 28 days postinjury. Results are shown as mean ± SD from n = 3–5 experimental repeats. *p < 0.05, ***p < 0.001Back to article page
