Six-week Aerobic Exercise Improves Oxidative Damage of Skeletal Muscles and Promotes Myokine Production in Atherosclerotic Mice / 中国生物化学与分子生物学报

Atherosclerosis involving peripheral arteries can cause skeletal muscle lesions, in which oxidative damage is an important manifestation, and atherosclerosis also reduces the production and secretion of beneficial myokines. Irisin, musclin and β-aminoisobutyric acid (BAIBA) are thought to be involved in improving atherosclerosis. However, the molecular mechanism of atherosclerosis-induced skeletal muscle lesions and the effects of aerobic exercise training on the oxidative damage of skeletal muscle and myokine production remain unclear. In this study, apolipoprotein E knockout (ApoE
