Fig3 Limb grip strength tests in MDX mice.
The assessment of limb strength in experimental mice were performed by means of grip strength meter (BIO-G53, Bioseb, France). The mice were allowed to grab the pull bar and are then gently pulled backwards. The force applied to the bar just before it loses grip was recorded as peak resistance force (expressed in grams). To reduced procedure-related variability, the tests were repeated 4 to 5 times and the average was recorded.
