The histochemical profile of the rat extensor digitorum longus muscle differentiates after birth and dedifferentiates in senescence
Age dependent motor unit dedifferentiation is a key component of impaired muscle function in advanced age. Here, we tested the hypothesis that rat muscle histochemical profile during the lifespan of an individual has an age-specific pattern since comprehensive longitudinal studies of muscle differen...
