Overexpression of microRNA-206 in the skeletal muscle from myotonic dystrophy type 1 patients

Table 1 Pathohistological features of each DM1 specimens

Patients	Sex	Muscle	Lysosomal activity*	Muscle pathohistological aspects
DM1-1	M	VL	xxxx	atrophy
DM1-2	M	VL	xxx	atrophy
DM1-3	M	VL	xx	mild atrophy
DM1-4	M	VL	xxxx	atrophy
DM1-5	M	VL	x	few atrophic fibers
DM1-6	F	VL	xxxx	severe atrophy
DM1-7	M	VL	absent	few atrophic fibers

Are shown the main pathohistological features of each DM1 specimens used in this study (sex, muscle, lysosomal activity and muscle pathohistological aspects). Muscle biopsies from VL of 1 female and 3 males have been used as control samples. (VL = Vastus Lateralis; M = Male; F = Female; * = Phosphatase activity present in atrophic fiber where autophagy is active.)
