The signaling pathways mediating Si improvements from aerobic exercise differed by sex and were further distinguished by exercise intensity and amount. Transcriptional adaptations in skeletal muscle related to Si improvements appear to be causally linked to estrogen and PKC signaling, with EGFR and other identified targets emerging as potential skeletal muscle-specific drug targets to mimic the beneficial effects of exercise on Si.
