Chronic stimulation of rat fast‐twitch muscle increased the content of both fatty acid‐binding protein (FABP) and myoglobin. The increases in FABP, which reached values close to that of cardiac muscle, exceeded those in myoglobin and those in citrate synthase and 3‐hydroxyacyl‐CoA dehydrogenase activities.
