Fig 7. mtDNA copy number in the MGF and the MGS in control and trained animals.
Mitochondrial DNA copy number (mtDNA/nDNA ratio) in the fast part of the medial gastrocnemius (MGF, panel A) and the slow part of the medial gastrocnemius (MGS, panel B) after 2, 4 and 8 weeks of endurance training. Data are presented as mean + SD. One-sided p-value represents the statistical significance of the training period (2, 4 or 8 weeks) with respect to the control group (Dunnett’s post hoc test) (S11 File). The symbols * denote values significantly different: * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001.
