Assessment by qPCR of the effects of ES for 7 days on mRNA levels of PGC-1α-responsive genes, and genes involved in signaling for calcineurin, Wnt/ß-catenin and Notch. A. mRNA levels for fiber-type related genes. B. mRNA levels for Wnt signaling genes. mRNA levels were determined by real time PCR in samples of the left soleus from animals from the indicated groups. Data are means ± SEM where N was 13, 8 and 5 animals for Sham-SCI, SCI, and SCI-ES, respectively. Letters above each bar indicate the significance of differences as follows: a, p < 0.05 versus Sham-SCI; b, p < 0.05 versus SCI; the remaining differences did not reach statistical significance.
