The source study was found, but this claim couldn't be checked against it.
Claim 2 of 7Not checkedThe study used bulk RNA sequencing, metabolomics, proteomics, single-nucleus RNA sequencing and DNA methylation profiling to create a multi-omics atlas spanning 22 tissues.View evidenceHide evidence

The source study was found, but this claim couldn't be checked against it.
Claim 4 of 7Not checkedExercise induced widespread, tissue-specific cellular remodeling, with most transcriptional changes occurring in skeletal muscle; no single gene changed in all 22 tissues.View evidenceHide evidence

The source study was found, but this claim couldn't be checked against it.
Claim 5 of 7Not checkedThe atlas found sex- and circadian-phase differences, including broader transcriptional responses in females and stronger changes during the active phase in most tissues.View evidenceHide evidence
