โฆ Synopsis
A quantitative analysis of the pattern of development and growth of the fetal extensor digitorum longus muscle of the 129 ReJ mouse was carried out in spaced, serial ultrathin sections with computer-assisted morphometry. Muscle from 12-, 14-, 16-, and 18-day in utero mice and from newborn and 5-day postnatal mice was analyzed to determine age-related changes in such factors as the maximal girth and length of the muscle, the number of myotubes, the "cluster" frequency, and the diameters and lengths of the myotubes and muscle units. A distinct temporal pattern of development
Methods
Pregnant 129 ReJ mice, obtained from the Jackson Laboratory, were anesthetized and

Background: In order to understand the cellular basis underlying the progressively poorer restorative capacity of long-term denervated muscle, we determined the effects of long-term denervation on the muscle fibers and satellite cell population of the rat extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscle. Met
## Abstract To determine whether the potency of botulinum toxin A (BTA) decreases after being reconstituted with normal saline and stored in refrigerator, we injected one side of the extensor digitorum brevis muscle with 2.5 units of botulinum toxin A that had been immediately reconstituted with sa
While attrition from sharp bony surfaces is the most common cause of extensor digiti minimi (EDM) tendon rupture, the etiology of other cases of spontaneous EDM tendon rupture is still unknown. Friction within the compartment may play a role, especially with ulna dislocation. The purpose of this stu
