Very nice figure showing the fiber type composition of hindlimb muscles in mice. Notice the very high proportion of type IIb fibers in most muscles, a fiber type that does not exist in humans.

Beautiful mitochondria aplenty!!! Interesting that ambient O2 had no effect - when your mito density is so high, maybe no room for more?
It’s #EMmonday and we’re looking at moth flight muscle by TEM. @sarawilmsen and Edward Dzialowski find no major differences in morphometrics of flight muscle of M. sexta raised in hypoxia, normoxia or hyperoxia. 📖@J_Exp_Biol journals.biologists.com/jeb/… journals.biologists.com/jeb/…
