Results published from the recently completed NIH funded Exercise Intervention Study

Posted by Bio Admin on September 25, 2020

The first paper from the 3 year study on exercise training and redox balance was recently published in Free Radical Biology and Medicine (see our publications page). This study was an 8-week randomized controlled where young and older individuals were randomly assigned to either exercise training or a non-exercise control group. The primary outcome tested whether the exercise intervention would improve Nrf2 activation and signaling in response to acute exercise. The two main findings were i) the exercise… Read more
