Eccentric exercise activates novel transcriptional regulation of hypertrophic signaling pathways

ABSTRACT: Full title: Eccentric exercise activates novel transcriptional regulation of hypertrophic signaling pathways not affected by hormone changes. Unaccustomed eccentric exercise damages muscle tissue stimulating mechanisms of recovery and remodeling that may be affected by cellular protection by the sex hormone 17β-estradiol (E2). Using cDNA microarrays, we screened for differences in mRNA expression caused by E2 and eccentric exercise. After randomly assignment to 8 days of either placebo (CON) or E2 (EXP), eighteen men performed 150 single-leg eccentric contractions. Muscle biopsies were collected at baseline (BL), following supplementation (PS), +3 hours (3H) and +48 hours (48H) after exercise. Serum E2 concentrations increased significantly with supplementation (P < 0.001) but did not aff
