Diabetes Alters Contraction-Induced Mitogen Activated Protein Kinase Activation in the Rat Soleus and Plantaris
Figure 2
Contraction-induced Erk1/2-MAPK
phosphorylation is altered with type II diabetes. Plantaris and soleus muscles from lean (LNZ) and obese
Zucker (OSXZ) rats were obtained immediately after, 1 and 3 hours after a bout
of HFES. Alterations in Erk1 (a),(b) and Erk2 (c),(d)-MAPK
phosphorylation with exercise were determined by immunoblotting.
An asterisk (*) indicates significant difference () from the
control within animal model, and a cross (†) indicates significant difference () at corresponding time points across animal models.
