Why the study?
Does acute swimming training induce early remodeling, MMP activity, and myosin heavy chain gene expression in the rat myocardium?
Does acute swimming training induce early remodeling, MMP activity, and myosin heavy chain gene expression in the rat myocardium?
Acute swimming training in rats induces early biochemical and functional changes in the myocardium, including increased MMP-2 activity and myosin heavy chain-beta expression, indicative of precocious tissue remodeling.

Hypothesis-generating for acute exercise-induced remodeling in rats; leaves open human translation and requires prospective studies.
Verzola et al. (2006) studied this question.
