Abstract The effect of resistance training and a herbal supplement on muscular signaling pathways are limited. We investigated the expression of IL-6, Gp130, JAK and STAT after resistance training, and Spirulina platensis supplementation in animal muscle.

The resistance exercise group trained five sessions each week for eight weeks. Spirulina… More >
