Protein content of (A) LC3B-I, (B) LC3B-II and (C) LC3B-II/I ratio in type I and type II fibers in the low and normal glycogen leg pre and post 60 min of two-legged cycling exercise, and (D) the relationship between the decrease in LC3B-II and the level of post-exercise palmitoylcarnitine in the low glycogen leg. Individual values from 5 subjects as well as mean values are presented. Filled circles indicate male subjects and open circles the female subject, however, some values are masked due to overlap. In D, circles indicate male subjects and the triangle the female subject. The ANOVA revealed a significant interaction between leg and time for all variables. Fisher´s LSD post hoc test was employed to identify where the differences occurred
