 2. To use liver and muscle biopsies to characterize the changes in abundance of mRNAs and proteins that characterize inflammation, extracellular matrix remodeling, and fibrosis. The investigators will use quantitative rt-PCR and immunoblot analysis to compare mRNA expression and protein abundance of collagens I and III, fibronectin, and connective tissue growth factor CTGF to test the hypothesis that there is a direct relationship between the levels of these proteins in muscle and liver and the degree of fibrosis.
