Effects of Acute Aerobic Exercise on Whole Genome Nucleosome Maps in Skeletal Muscle of Lean vs Overweight/Obese Men

ABSTRACT: Acute aerobic exercise has been shown to improve skeletal muscle mitochondrial function and completeness of fatty acid β-oxidation which contribute to improved insulin sensitivity. The effectiveness of acute exercise on improving mitochondrial adaptations, leading to improved insulin sensitivity, in overweight/obese (Ov/Ob) individuals is controversial. This study aimed to determine the effects of acute exercise on epigenetic regulation, specifically nucleosome positioning, of genes involved in skeletal muscle mitochondrial adaptations in lean vs Ov/Ob men.
