Abstract
Skeletal muscle structure can differ depending on the species or type of muscle. For example, deltoid, diaphragm, tibialis anterior and gastrocnemius muscles have different morphological features (Burdi et al, 2009; Rafael et al, 1994; Piñol-Jurado et al, 2018). In addition, several myopathies affect only a subset of skeletal muscles with no particular explanation (Jacques et al, 2019). Different types of histoenzymological techniques can be made on muscle biopsies, Hematoxylin & Eosin, modified Gomori Trichrome, adenosine triphosphatase to identify fiber types, or reduced NAD-tetrazolium reductase, cytochrome C oxidase and succinate dehydrogenase to evaluate enzymatic/mitochondria activity.
