Fig. 1From: Effects of a 4400 km ultra-cycling non-competitive race and related training on body composition and circulating progenitors differentiationRUNX2 and PPARG2 were upregulated in BN (b) and AN (c) compared to BPP (a). BN (b) and AN (c) performance upregulated SESN1 expression in circulating MSCs: a (BPP, before the preparation period); b (BN, the week before NC4000); AN (c, 10 days after NC4000). *p < 0.05; **p < 0.005; ***p < 0.001Back to article page
