Effects of high‐intensity endurance exercise training in the G93A mouse model of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

Abstract

The G93A transgenic mouse has a mutation in copper/zinc superoxide dismutase (CuZnSOD) that results in oxidative stress and motor neuron loss. Endurance exercise training is known to increase antioxidant capacity in skeletal muscle. Therefore, we hypothesized that endurance training may extend onset of disease or survival in the G93A mouse. We examined the effects of high-intensity endurance exercise training (45 min/day, 5 times/week, …
