Differential effects of nandrolone decanoate in fast and slow rat skeletal muscles

Abstract

These results show that 5 wk of exercise training produced changes in the contractile responses developed by isolated skeletal muscle cells. The combination of exercise training with ND treatment potentiated these effects, suggesting that there was some modification in the excitation-contraction coupling mechanism. ND treatment also produced a more potent effect in soleus than edl sedentary muscle.
