• at 7 months of age mice, develop more fibrosis of the connective tissue than wild-type mice
• fibrosis of connective tissue following muscle injury is increased compared to in similarly treated wild-type mice
• muscle regeneration is delayed and accompanied by endomysial fibrosis, muscle fiber hypertrophy, increased fiber diameter heterogeneity, and fat accumulation unlike in wild-type mice
