Chronic alcohol intake, resistance training, and muscle androgen receptor content
Article Abstract:
The effect of chronic alcohol intake on androgen receptor (AR) content in skeletal muscle that is conducted to determine whether the effect is influenced by resistance training (RT) is described. It is seen that alcohol significantly reduced AR content of the rectus femoris and prevented RT-induced increase in AR content of the soleus.
