Abstract
After administration (1 g/kg every other day for a total of five injections) of Triton WR-1339, the tonic, anterior (ALD) and phasic, posterior (PLD) latissimus dorsi muscles of the chicken underwent distinct pathological modifications. Some of the morphological alterations in the muscles paralleled those seen after administration of chloroquine, increased autophagic vacuole formation in the ALD muscle and swelling of the sarcoplasmic reticulum in the PLD muscle, but other changes were unique to Triton WR-1339. These included loss of myofilaments and whole myofibrils, indentation of the sarcolemma as well as increased numbers of ribosomes in the ALD muscle and swelling of the T-tubular system in the PLD muscle. These results are compared with other lysosome mediated pathologies, as well as with other myopathies.
