Chronic electrostimulation of rat fast-twitch muscle induces significant increases in FABP, reaching levels comparable to cardiac muscle.
Does not yet alter clinical practice; leaves open translational relevance of FABP upregulation in human muscle.
Chronic stimulation of rat fast-twitch muscle increased the content of both fatty acid-binding protein (FABP) and myoglobin. The increases in FABP, which reached values close to that of cardiac muscle, exceeded those in myoglobin and those in citrate synthase and 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase activities.
