Exercise promotes α7 integrin gene transcription and protection of skeletal muscle

The α7β1 integrin is increased in skeletal muscle in response to injury-producing exercise, and transgenic overexpression of this integrin in mice protects against exercise-induced muscle damage. The present study investigates whether the increase in the α7β1 integrin observed in wild-type mice in r...
