Abstract excerpt
Adult skeletal muscle fibers can be categorized into slow-oxidative and fast-glycolytic subtypes based on specialized metabolic and contractile properties. The Forkhead box O1 (FoxO1) transcription factor governs muscle growth, metabolism, and cell differentiation, and has been shown to be involved in regulating muscle fiber type specification. However, to date, the mechanism behind FoxO1-mediated fiber type...
