Deskripsi

Endurance and resistance exercise have different effects on skeletal muscle phenotype. Using mouse models and human subjects, the authors show that JNK/Smad2 signaling acts as molecular switch that when activated by resistance exercise leads to hypertrophy, and when inhibited promotes endurance adaptations in muscle.
