Figure 4. Muscle insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and collagen (COL) mRNA expression during 2 weeks of immobilisation and 6 weeks of re-training in young males (n= 20) with either recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) (n= 10) or placebo (n= 10).

Figure 4

A, IGF-1Ea mRNA (muscle); time effect (P < 0.05) and group interaction (P < 0.05). B, IGF-1Ec mRNA (muscle); time effect (P < 0.05) and group interaction (P < 0.05). C, COL1A1 mRNA (muscle); time effect (P < 0.05) and group interaction (P < 0.05). D, COL3A1 mRNA (muscle); time effect (P < 0.05) and group interaction, (P < 0.05). *Time effect, P < 0.05, compared with baseline. $Group effect, P < 0.05, GH vs. Plc within time point.
