P6277The impact of exercise training in combination with statin use on skeletal muscle mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation and metabolomics in obese rats

Background Exercise training (ET) and statin treatment both alter skeletal muscle function. Purpose We investigated the effects of a combined exercise and statin use on skeletal muscle mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation (OxPhos) and metabolic alterations in obese rats. Methods Eight-week-old male Wistar rats were used. A total of 14 animals received standard chow, while 46 rats were fed a high-fat diet (HFD) for 20 weeks. After 8 weeks, the...
