Relative specific activity for each enzyme was calculated by dividing its specific activity in plasma membrane by its specific activity in homogenate. SD–Rest: standard diet-rest; SD–Ex: standard diet–acute exercise; HF–Rest: high-fat diet–rest; HF–Ex: high-fat diet–acute exercise; SDH: succinate deshydrogenase; INT: iodonitrotetrazolium violet.
