MicroRNAs in Muscle: Characterizing the Powerlifter Phenotype

MicroRNAs in Muscle: Characterizing the Powerlifter Phenotype

Powerlifters are the epitome of muscular adaptation and are able to generate extreme forces. The molecular mechanisms underpinning the significant capacity for force generation and hypertrophy are not fully elucidated. MicroRNAs (miRs) are short non-coding RNA sequences that control gene expression...
