Values are means ± SE; CON (n = 8) and AA (n = 7). IR-A, insulin receptor isoform A; IR-B, insulin receptor isolform B; PGC1A, PPARγ coactivator-1α; PFK, phosphofructokinase; CYTOC, cytochrome c; FAS, fatty acid synthase; SREBP1C, sterol response element-binding protein-1; NRF1, nuclear regulatory factor 1; NRF2, nuclear regulatory factor 2; ERRA, estrogen-related receptor-α. mRNA concentrations are relative to the average of 3 reference genes for skeletal muscle samples (β-actin, GAPDH, and S15) and 2 reference genes for liver samples (S15 and 18S), which were not different between groups. Results are presented relative to expression in the CON group.
P < 0.05 between CON and AA.
