Abstract: We further examined the structural changes of microvessels in the extensor digitorum longus muscle of the aged (18 months) rat. Muscle bundles in this aged muscle constantly consisted of ...

Abstract: Structural changes of capillaries around muscle fibres following their degeneration and regeneration were further examined in the extensor digitorum longus muscle of the 24-month-old normal ...
