## Abstract Skeletal muscle dysfunction contributes to exercise limitation in COPD. In this study cigarette smoke exposure was hypothesized to increase expression of the inflammatory cytokine, TNF‐α, thereby suppressing PGC‐1α, and hence affecting down stream molecules that regulate oxygen transpor

## Abstract Skeletal muscle mitochondrial dysfunction has been linked to several disease states as well as the process of aging. A possible factor involved is the peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor (PPAR) γ co‐activator 1α (PGC‐1α), a major player in the regulation of skeletal muscle mitoch
