Lifelong wheel running provides partial protection against age-associated downregulation of IGF-1 (51). IGF-1 protein expression in young (6 months) Fischer-344 rats fed ad libitum (YAL), old (24 months) rats fed ad libitum (OAL), old rats that underwent lifelong 8% caloric restriction (OCR), and old rats that participated in lifelong voluntary wheel running plus 8% caloric restriction (OExCR). Values are means ±SEM. (a) indicates significant difference from YAL group. (b) indicates significant difference from OAL group. IGF-1, insulin-like growth factor-1.
