IMP, inosine monophosphate; iRNA, inhibitory microRNA. For each group, control and RNAi muscles were taken from the same animal. Data are represented as means ± SD, n = 6 males and 3 females per group.
P < 0.05 main effect of duty cycle; ^P < 0.05 main effect of treatment (RNAi); (-) not detectable.
