Impact of age and contraction mode on transcriptome response of human skeletal muscle to resistance exercise
Optimisation of resistance exercise (RE) remains a hotbed of research in relation to muscle building and maintenance in youth and older age. However, the interactions between the two contractile components of RE (i.e. eccentric (ECC) and concentric (CON)) and chronological age, are poorly defined. Transcriptomics was thus utilised to compare age-related molecular responses to acute ECC and CON exercise.
