Abstract Synopsis

  • The study examined how intermittent fasting (IF) and high-intensity interval training (HIIT) affect muscle health in rats, specifically looking at muscle size, cell death pathways, and growth regulators in different muscle types.
  • Results showed that both IF and HIIT influenced muscle mass, increased pro-apoptotic proteins (AIF, EndoG), and altered signaling related to muscle atrophy, with combined treatment reducing muscle fiber size and affecting apoptosis pathways differently in slow-twitch and fast-twitch muscles.
  • The findings suggest that muscle type determines how these interventions impact muscle structure and signaling, with factors like myostatin and caspase-independent apoptosis playing a role in how muscles respond to fasting and exercise.]
