Protein Synthesis and Antioxidant Capacity in Aging Mice: Effects of Long‐Term Voluntary Exercise

Exercise increases metabolic rate and the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) but also elevates protein turnover. ROS cause damage to macromolecules (e.g., proteins) and thereby contribute to aging. Protein turnover removes and replaces damaged proteins. The balance between these two respons...
