Hyperbaric Oxygen Exposure Reduces Age-Related Decrease in Oxidative Capacity of the Tibialis Anterior Muscle in Mice
Figure 5
Succinate dehydrogenase activities of type IIA (a) and type IIB (b) fibers in the tibialis anterior muscles of the normobaric and hyperbaric groups at different ages. Data are represented as the mean and standard deviation determined from six animals. The mice in the hyperbaric group were exposed to 36% oxygen at 950 mmHg for 6 hours per day for 2 weeks. SDH: succinate dehydrogenase; OD: optical density. compared with the corresponding group at 7 weeks; compared with the corresponding groups at 7 and 36 weeks; compared with the age-matched normobaric group.
