Ageing leads to selective type II myofibre deterioration and denervation independent of reinnervative capacity in human skeletal muscle
Elevated heart rate and decreased muscle endothelial nitric oxide synthase in early development of insulin resistance
Variability in vastus lateralis fiber type distribution, fiber size, and myonuclear content along and between the legs
Acute increases in brain-derived neurotrophic factor in plasma following physical exercise relates to subsequent learning in older adults
Fiber type-specific hypertrophy and increased capillarization in skeletal muscle following testosterone administration in young women
Activation of mTORC1 by leucine is potentiated by branched-chain amino acids and even more so by essential amino acids following resistance exercise
Intake of branched-chain or essential amino acids attenuates the elevation in muscle levels of PGC-1α4 mRNA caused by resistance exercise
Resistance exercise-induced S6K1 kinase activity is not inhibited in human skeletal muscle despite prior activation of AMPK by high-intensity interval cycling
