Influence of Wnt Proteins Following Acute Skeletal Muscle Injury in Mice and Freezing Protocols for Skeletal Muscle Histology
We examined mRNA expression of the 19 wnt proteins following acute skeletal muscle injury in mice on day 7 post-injury using PCR. A staining procedure for macrophages, endothelial cells, satellite cells, and fibroblasts was...
