The exercise-diet manipulation significantly affected the transcription of all carbohydrate-related genes, increasing GLUT4 and glycogenin mRNA abundance after a high-carbohydrate diet.
Dietary strategies that increase carbohydrate intake can enhance the expression of genes involved in glucose metabolism.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
The exercise-diet manipulation exerted a significant effect on transcription of all carbohydrate-related genes, with an increase in GLUT4 and glycogenin mRNA abundance.
Why this rating
The study design includes direct measurement of gene expression.
