Deletion of NG2+ PCs induces muscular atrophy in soleus muscles. A Appearance of isolated soleus, gastrocnemius, and triceps surae muscles in each group 4 months after PC-deletion (PC-del). B Weight of isolated muscles 4 months after induction of PC-deletion. Rosa-DTA mice with Tam or NG2-CreERT/DTA without Tam were used as control A and B (Ct A, Ct B), respectively. Values are presented as the means ± SEM (n = 4–8); *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ns = not significant
