Effect of Vitamin E on the Skeletal Muscle Fibers of Mouse by Histometrical Study
|

Abstract
|
|
|
Changes of muscle fiber size that follow vitamin E administration and vitamin E deficiency in the mouse were observed. Mean diameter and percentile size distribution were calculated in the sartorius and back muscles.
Of sartorius muscle, the mean diameter was measured as 36.0 microns and their size distribution extends from 10 microns to 70 microns in normal control group. Of back muscle, mean diameter was 35.5 microns and range also between 10 to 70 microns. .
Vitamin E administration resulted slight increase in the mean diameter of fibers, while a deficiency caused positive decrease and iregularity in size distribution in both muscles.
