Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Since activation of the PI3K/(protein kinase B; PKB/akt) pathway has been shown to alter muscle mass and growth, the aim of this study was to determine whether resistance exercise increased insulin like growth factor (IGF) I/phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) signalling and whether altering PI(3,4,5)P(3) metabolism genetically would increase load induced muscle growth. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS:...
