The mRNA content of the transcription factors nuclear respiratory factor 1 (NRF−1), Nuclear respiratory factor 2α (NRF−2α), Mitochondrial transcription factor A (mtTFA) and peroxisome proliferators activated receptor α (PPAR α), Selected calcium-signalling proteins calcineurin submit Aα, calcineriun subnit Aβ, Calcineurin suunit B1 and CaMKI (calcium-calmodulin-dependent protein Kinase I), and the matabolioc enzymes hexokinase II (HKII), Citrate synthase (CS) and 3-hydroxyacl-CoA dehydrogenase (HAD) in the hexokinase II (HKII), citrate synthase (CS) and 3-hydroxyacl-CoA dehydrogenase (HAD) in the untrained (UT) and trained (T) leg before (Pre) and immediately after (0′) exercise and at 2,6 and 24 h of recovery from 3 h of two-legged Knee extensor exercise. Values are presented as fold changes relative to Pre, which was set to 1. Values are means ± s.e.m.
