The 24-Hour Time Course of Integrated Molecular Responses to Resistance Exercise in Human Skeletal Muscle Implicates MYC as a Hypertrophic Regulator

ABSTRACT: Molecular control of recovery after exercise in muscle is temporally dynamic. A time course of biopsies around resistance exercise (RE) combined with -omics is necessary to better comprehend the molecular choreography of skeletal muscle adaptation in humans. We collected vastus lateralis biopsies before and 30 minutes, 3-, 8-, and 24 hours after acute RE. RNA-sequencing defined the transcriptome and a time-point matched biopsy only group were controls. DNA methylomics and computational approaches complimented the transcriptome data. Moreover, we tested whether cyclic transient overexpression of transcription factor MYC for 4 weeks were sufficient to induce skeletal muscle hypertrophy in female mice.
