Effects of Bb, Lp, and LB on the skeletal muscle strength and mass in aged mice. Effects on treadmill running distance (a) and time (b) and grip strength (c). Effects on the weights of gastrocnemius (GA, d), soleus (SOL, e), quadriceps femoris (QD, f), extensor digitorum longus (EDL, g), tibialis anterior (TA, h), and total muscles (i). Bb, Lp, and LB (1 × 109 CFU/mouse/day) and Cr (75 mg/kg) were orally gavaged once a day (6 days in one week) for 8 weeks. Data are indicated as mean ± SD (n = 6). #p < 0.05 vs. Yg. *p < 0.05 vs. Vh/Ag
