Paternal exercise confers endurance capacity to offspring through sperm microRNAs
Paternal exercise influences exercise capacity and metabolic health of offspring, but the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. We demonstrate that offspring sired by exercise-trained fathers display intrinsic exercise adaptations and improved metabolic parameters compared with those sired by sedentary fathers. Similarly, offspring born to transgenic mice with muscle-specific overexpression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator-1α (PGC-1α), a booster of mitochondrial ...
