Associations Among Physical Activity Level and Skeletal Muscle Antioxidants in Older Adults.

CONCLUSIONS: These data show that skeletal muscle endogenous antioxidant expression and circulating oxidative damage are associated with habitual MVPA in older adults. Thus, MVPA in older adults may be protective against reactive oxygen species damage due to higher expression of endogenous antioxidants. PMID: 32788413 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
