Purpose Aerobic (AE) and resistance (RE) exercise elicit unique adaptations in skeletal
muscle. The purpose here was to compare the post-exercise response of mTOR signaling …

Understanding the relationship between physical exercise, reactive oxygen species and
skeletal muscle modification is important in order to better identify the benefits or the …

Background: Myokines, a group of small proteins—mainly cytokines, are released by
myocytes during muscular contraction and proved to have many biological effects locally or …

Physical inactivity contributes to cardiovascular disease, type II diabetes, obesity, and some
types of cancer. While the literature is clear that there is genetic regulation of physical activity …

Human skeletal muscles have different fiber types with distinct metabolic functions and
physiological properties. The quantitative metabolic responses of muscle fibers to exercise …

Skeletal muscle has an important role besides its obvious function in physical movement
and locomotion; namely, it maintains whole-body metabolism. Maintaining muscle mass and …

Aerobic exercise capacity is critical to bodily health. As a model to investigate the
mechanisms that determine health and disease, we employed low (LCR) and high (HCR) …

Ice hockey is a high intensity sport activity with a multidirectional nature. The ability to
change direction rapidly while maintaining balance without loss of speed is an important …

Skeletal muscle is now recognized as an endocrine organ with the capacity to produce
signal peptides in response to muscle contractions. Here we demonstrate that resting …

Skeletal muscle is a heterogenous and metabolically active tissue, the composition of which
is associated with multiple traits. The aim of the study was to determine whether there are …
