Exercise Stimulates Pgc-1α Transcription in Skeletal Muscle through Activation of the p38 MAPK Pathway

Takayuki Akimoto, +7 more
- 20 May 2005 - 
TL;DR: It is reported that a single bout of voluntary running induced a transient increase of Pgc-1α mRNA expression in mouse plantaris muscle, concurrent with an activation of the p38 MAPK pathway, suggesting that contractile activity-induced activation ofThe p38MAPK pathway promotes PGC-1 α gene expression and skeletal muscle adaptation.

Christoph Handschin, +7 more
- 12 Oct 2007 - 
TL;DR: A critical role is demonstrated for PGC-1α in maintenance of normal fiber type composition and of muscle fiber integrity following exertion in skeletal muscle knock-out animals.

microRNA-1 and microRNA-206 regulate skeletal muscle satellite cell proliferation and differentiation by repressing Pax7

Jian-Fu Chen, +8 more
- 06 Sep 2010 -
