This study identifies a distinct cardiometabolic profile and reduced physiological response to exercise in adults with cerebral palsy compared to typically developing individuals.

The paper shows that exercise preconditioning enhances skeletal muscle hypertrophy through epigenetic and metabolic changes, specifically involving Smox and Wnt signaling.

The paper shows that transient MYC activation in skeletal muscle mimics exercise-induced adaptations, leading to hypertrophy, metabolic changes, and fiber type shifts.

This study shows that endurance exercise increases plasma mature BDNF (mBDNF) in children, adolescents, and adults, with a greater response in adults, and that regular vigorous activity in youth correlates with higher basal mBDNF levels.

This study maps the 24-hour molecular response to resistance exercise in human muscle, identifying MYC as a key regulator of hypertrophy and mRNA levels.
