This is explained by the fact that oral intake of sodium bicarbonate causes an increase in blood bicarbonate concentrations which exerts an extracellular buffering effect during physical exercise, due to the increase of the hydrogen ion (H +) eff…
Carnosine is a cytoplasmic dipeptide found in high concentrations in the skeletal muscle of both vertebrates and non-vertebrates, and is associated with muscle buffering, sensitivity of calcium release channels and/or calcium sensitivity of the contractile apparatus and scavenging of reactive oxygen species. It has been shown that the elevation of muscle carnosine concentrations through t…
