Calcium channel blockers (CCB) was studied extensively in cardiology for their tissue
protective effect following myocardial infarction; we hypothesized that administration of
a CCB would interfere with the processes that result in exercise-induced muscle damage
(EIMD) and delayed onset muscle soreness. To investigate the effects of a CCB on a...
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) are members of a
large group of ligand-regulated transcription factors that includes nuclear

Synthetic fibrates and thiazolidinediones that bind to and activate PPARs are
used efficaciously in humans to remedy hypertriglyceridemia and non-insulin
dependent diabetes mellitus,...
