The effects of non-weight bearing on skeletal muscle in older rats: an interrupted bout versus an uninterrupted bout.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Leptin and adiponectin, two adipokines involved in glucose and lipid metabolism, have been linked to regulation of growth in early infancy, energy balance, and metabolic disorders in childhood. The aim of this study was to determine if concentrations of leptin and adiponectin could be measured reliably in in...
