(A) Localization of NFATc1 (green) in a longitudinal section of EDL muscle from a control rat. A faint staining of nuclei and cytoplasm is visible in the muscle fibers. Note also the striated pattern suggesting an association of NFATc1 to sarcomeric proteins. The most intense staining is found in the vascular smooth muscle cells. (B–D) Cross section of EDL muscle from a control rat. (B) Localization of NFATc1 is shown in green and nuclei in blue; (C) distribution of type I fibers (red); (D) composite image. Scale bar for A is 20 µm and for B–D 50 µm.
