Exercise increases MEF2A abundance in rat cardiac muscle by downregulating microRNA-223-5p

Abstract Exercise plays an important role in cardiac health and enhances the transport of glucose in cardiac muscle by increasing the glucose transporter-4 (GLUT4) content at the cell membrane. The GLUT4 gene is a target of myocyte enhancer transcription factor 2A (MEF2A). Several transcription fact...
