Notes:
Two-hundred and eight mice were paired as parabionts, or as single controls, with normal mice on the day of weaning. Pairs were sacrificed at 4, 8, 12 and 16 weeks after pairing. Autopsies were performed, organs were weighed and microscopic examination of tissues was performed. The results show a decreased liver weight in parabiosed dystrophics with a concomitant increased liver weight in parabiosed normals. The severity of muscle lesions of parabiosed dystrophics was less than that of counterpart single dystrophics. There was no observed clinical improvement.
