Effects of L-glutamine supplementation (daily doses of 1 g/kg body weight for five weeks) associated or not with resistance exercise training on the expression of IGF-1 mRNA in the EDL muscle. The results are presented as the mean ± SEM (standard error of the mean) and were compared using a two-way ANOVA test and the Bonferroni post-test (n = 5 to 6 animals per group).* p < 0.05 vs. C. Control, no exercise (C); exercise, hypertrophy resistance training exercise protocol (T); no exercise, supplemented with glutamine (G); and exercise and supplemented with glutamine (GT).
