Modulation of MAPK and NF-κB Signaling Pathways by Antioxidant Therapy in Skeletal Muscle of Heart Failure Rats

Background/Aims: Although increased oxidative stress plays a role in heart failure (HF)-induced skeletal myopathy, signaling pathways involved in muscle changes and the role of antioxidant agents have been poorly addressed. We evaluated the effects of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) on intracellular signalin...
