Genetic variants in the PPARD-PPARGC1A-NRF-TFAM mitochondriogenesis pathway are neither associated with muscle characteristics nor physical performance in elderly. [Variaciones genéticas en la vía de la mitocondriogénesis PPARD-PPARGC1A-NRF-TFAM no están asociadas ni con características musculares ni con rendimiento físico en personas mayores].

We studied the influence of genetic polymorphisms involved in the PPARD-PPARGC1A-NRF-TFAM mitochondriogenesis pathway (rs6949152, rs12594956, rs2267668, rs8192678, and rs1937) on muscle phenotypes (thigh muscles' cross-sectional, maximal handgrip-strength and 30-second chair stand-test) and Bar...
