  • The metabolic and structural changes induced by exercise affect the contractile properties of the muscle fiber

  • An attractive mechanism for the redox regulation of numerous cellular processes is a redox signaling relay from cytoplasmic generation to a mitochondrial response, through the sequential modification of specific residues in regulatory proteins located in close proximity to the sites of endogenously generated ROS/RNS (McDonagh et al, 2014)

Summary

Introduction

Redox Regulation in Skeletal Muscle Aging and Exercise The species, concentration and cellular location of endogenously generated ROS/RNS can directly and indirectly affect the activity of redox regulated proteins and transcription factors with a multitude of downstream effects. An attractive mechanism for the redox regulation of numerous cellular processes is a redox signaling relay from cytoplasmic generation to a mitochondrial response, through the sequential modification of specific residues in regulatory proteins located in close proximity to the sites of endogenously generated ROS/RNS (McDonagh et al, 2014).
