A “human knockout” model to investigate the influence of the α-actinin-3 protein on exercise-induced mitochondrial adaptations
3 Sept 2019
Abstract excerpt
Research in α-actinin-3 knockout mice suggests a novel role for α-actinin-3 as a mediator of cell signalling. We took advantage of naturally-occurring human "knockouts" (lacking α-actinin-3 protein) to investigate the consequences of α-actinin-3 deficiency on exercise-induced changes in mitochondrial-related genes and proteins, as well as endurance training adaptations. At baseline, we observed a compensatory...
