    Summary
    The changes in superoxide, activation of NF-kB and release of myokines were attenuated following pre-treatment with SS-31 peptide
    1 context sentence
    Summary · context
    An increase was also seen in superoxide in response to treatment with TNF-α, which was localised to the mitochondria and this was also associated with activation of NF-κB.
