Figure 6From: Akt (protein kinase B) isoform phosphorylation and signaling downstream of mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin) in denervated atrophic and hypertrophic mouse skeletal muscle Akt mRNA expression. Akt1 and Akt2 mRNA expression in 6-days denervated atrophic hind-limb muscles (pooled muscle samples containing anterior tibial, extensor digitorum longus, soleus and gastrocnemius muscles) compared to innervated controls and expressed as fold change. Mean values ± standard error of the mean. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01. The dotted line represents a fold change of 1, equal to no difference in expression between denervated and innervated muscles.Back to article page
