Expression of the mature rRNA transcripts 5.8S rRNA (A), 18S rRNA (C), and 28S rRNA (E), and rRNA transcripts bound to the 45S pre-RNA precursor: 5.8S rRNA (span) (B) 18S rRNA (span) (D) and 28S rRNA (span) (F) relative to the geometric mean of the expression of three housekeeping genes (HKG) (cyclophillin, β2M and TBP) before (PRE-T) and after (POST-T) eight weeks of either RT alone, or RT combined with either high-intensity interval training (HIT+RT) or moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT+RT), and 1 h and 3 h after a single exercise bout performed post-training. Data presented are means ± SD and expressed relative to the PRE-T value for each corresponding group. *P < 0.05 vs. PRE-T, †P < 0.05 vs. POST-T, achange between PRE-T and POST-T substantially greater vs RT.
