Expression of IGF-I splice variants in young and old human skeletal muscle after high resistance exercise
2002-12-20
Abstract excerpt
The mRNA expression of two splice variants of the insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) gene, IGF-IEa and mechano growth factor (MGF), were studied in human skeletal muscle. Subjects (eight young, aged 25–36 years, and seven elderly, aged 70–82 years) completed 10 sets of six repetitions of single legged knee extensor exercise at 80 % of their one repetition maximum. Muscle biopsy samples were obtained from the qua...
