Implication

Requires combined histochemistry-immunohistochemistry for reliable type 2X typing in animals; hypothesis-generating and should not yet alter practice.

Structured PICO

P
Population
Hindlimb skeletal muscles of rat, mouse, and guinea pig
I
Intervention
Immunohistochemistry combined with enzyme histochemistry using anti-MHC monoclonal antibodies
O
Outcome
Identification and comparison of type 2X fiberssurrogate

The combined use of immuno- and enzyme histochemistry allows accurate identification of a novel type 2X fiber population in mammalian skeletal muscle, preventing incorrect fiber typing due to interspecies variability.
