Early remodeling of rat cardiac muscle induced by swimming training

Early remodeling of rat cardiac muscle induced by swimming training

The aim of the present investigation was to study the effect of acute swimming training with an anaerobic component on matrix metallopeptidase (MMP) activity and myosin heavy chain gene expression in the rat myocardium. Animals (male Wistar rats, weighing approximately 180 g) were trained for 6 h/da...
