Knockdown of the cardiac mtp alone yielded effects similar to exercise training in treating cardiomyopathy in Drosophila with HFD, whereas the HFD + Hand > mtpRNAi group of Drosophila showed a significant increase in cardiac mtp expression (Figure 5A) and systemic TG levels (Figure 6J) after exercise training. This evidence concerns the gene MTTP and cardiomyopathy.
