• Abstract

  Context: Liposuction is suggested to result in long-term body fat regain which could lead to increased cardiometabolic risk. We hypothesized that physical activity could prevent this effect. Objective: To investigate the effects of liposuction on body fat distribution and cardiometabolic risk factors in women who were either exercise-trained or not after surgery. Design: A six-month rando…

• Abstract

  Skeletal muscle protein turnover is modulated by intracellular signaling pathways involved in protein synthesis, degradation and inflammation. The proinflammatory status of muscle cells, observed in pathological conditions such as cancer, aging and sepsis can directly modulate protein translation initiation and muscle proteolysis, contributing to negative protein turnover. In this context…

• Abstract

  The objective of this study will be investigate the effects of strength training on survival and skeletal muscle of rats inoculated with Walker 256 tumor. Specifically, we are interested in investigating the effect of exercise on muscle structure and function of animals and the involvement of ubiquitin-proteasome proteolytic system and the involvement of protein synthesis via IGF-1/Akt/Mt…

• Abstract

  Carnosine is a cytoplasmic dipeptide found in abundance in skeletal muscle. The pH buffering is the best function attributed to carnosine. Cross-sectional studies have shown that athletes engaged in high-intensity, short duration exercises have a higher muscle carnosine content compared to untrained and physically active subjects, supporting the role of carnosine as a buffer, and suggesti…

• Abstract

  The human genome project revealed that the human genetic code is 99.9% identical between each individual, so there is a variation of 0.1% which can explain differences between individuals. While all humans possess the same genes, have been identified structural variations (polymorphisms) in genes that show associations with phenotypes related to physical performance. Since the sports perf…

• Abstract

  Among colonic metabolites, sulfide can be produced by the intestinal microbiota from alimentary and endogenous sulfur-containing compounds including amino acids. In excess, H2S is known to severely inhibit cytochrome oxidase, the terminal oxidase of the mitochondrial transport chain, and thus mitochondrial oxygen consumption. This can have deleterious effect on colonic function. For this …
