Training differentially regulates elastin level and proteolysis in skeletal and heart muscles and aorta in healthy rats
Exercise induces changes in muscle fibers and the extracellular matrix that may depend on elastin content and the activity of proteolytic enzymes. We investigated the influence of endurance training on the gene expression and protein content and/or activity of elastin, elastase, cathepsin K, and pla...
