Differential changes in neuromuscular junction morphology after divergence of activity pattern in rat slow and fast skeletal muscles

The morphology of NMJ was quantified in soleus and EDL muscles during postnatal development. Differences were extensively quantified in adults by measuring various parameters (e.g. junctional area, terminal area, width/length ratio, fragmentation of the terminal, shape coefficient). The fluorescent...
