SkeletalmusclehypertrophyisregulatedviaAKT/mTORpathway

Skeletal muscle atrophies with disuse while with increased use and increased load skeletal muscle exhibits hypertrophy, with an increase in the size of existing muscle fibers. One signaling pathway involved in regulating skeletal muscle atrophy and hypertrophy is the AKT/mTOR pathway (see mTOR pathway). The mTOR pathway activity increases in response to muscle activity during hypertrophy and decreases in activity dur......阅读全文
