Western blot using an antibody against GATA-2 transcription factor, a marker for skeletal muscle hypertrophy. In both gracilis anterior and posterior the WT muscle contained the least amount of GATA-2 protein, followed by an equal level in IGF and WT-EX muscles. IGF-EX muscles had the highest expression of GATA-2 protein, indicating that exercise and the mIGF-1 transgene synergize to increase muscle hypertrophy.
