Dance as an Eccentric Form of Exercise: Practical Implications

Paschalis, V.; Nikolaidis, M. G.; Jamurtas, A. Z.; Owolabi, E. O.; Kitas, G. D.; Wyon, M. A.; Koutedakis, Y. (2012)

The eccentric action is an integral part of the stretch-shortening (or eccentric-concentric) cycle of muscle movement, especially when repositioning of the centre of gravity is required. Jumps and landing tasks are examples ...

Decreased blood oxidative stress after repeated muscle-damaging exercise

Nikolaidis, M. G.; Paschalis, V.; Giakas, G.; Fatouros, A. G.; Koutedakis, Y.; Kouretas, D.; Jamurtas, A. Z. (2007)

Purpose: To examine the effect of repeated muscle-damaging exercise on the time-course changes in several indices of muscle damage, and to compare them with changes in blood oxidative stress indices. Methods: Twelve females ...

Eccentric exercise affects the upper limbs more than the lower limbs in position sense and reaction angle

Paschalis, V.; Nikolaidis, M. G.; Theodorou, A. A.; Giakas, G.; Jamurtas, A. Z.; Koutedakis, Y. (2010)

In this study, we investigated the effect of eccentric exercise on position sense and reaction angle of the elbow and knee flexors. Twelve males underwent two eccentric exercise sessions involving a randomized crossover ...

The effects of a water polo game on the blood redox status of male water polo players

Petridis, L.; Jamurtas, A. Z.; Veskoukis, A.; Kouretas, D. (2013)

Aim. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of a real water polo game on the oxidative stress and antioxidants markers of male water polo players. The importance of this study is that it is the first to examine ...

Equal volumes of high and low intensity of eccentric exercise in relation to muscle damage and performance

Paschalis, V.; Koutedakis, Y.; Jamurtas, A. Z.; Mougios, V.; Baltzopoulos, V. (2005)

We examined differences in muscle damage and muscle performance perturbations in relation to the same volumes of high (HI) and low intensity (LI) of eccentric exercise. Untrained young healthy men (n = 12) underwent 2 ...

Favorable and prolonged changes in blood lipid profile after muscle-damaging exercise

Nikolaidis, M. G.; Paschalis, V.; Giakas, G.; Fatouros, I. G.; Sakellariou, G. K.; Theodorou, A. A.; Koutedakis, Y.; Jamurtas, A. Z. (2008)

Purpose: To examine the effect of repeated muscle-damaging exercise on the time-course changes in blood lipid and lipoprotein profile and compare them with changes in indices of muscle function and damage. Methods: Twelve ...

Intense basketball-simulated exercise induces muscle damage in men with elevated anterior compartment pressure

Kostopoulos, N.; Fatouros, I. G.; Siatitsas, I.; Baltopoulos, P.; Kambas, A.; Jamurtas, A. Z.; Fotinakis, P. (2004)

The purpose of the present investigation was to examine the levels of muscle soreness, muscle damage, and performance output in men with (S, n = 24) or without (A, n = 24) chronic compartment syndrome (CACS)-related symptoms ...

Low Oxygen Tension Enhances Hepatitis C Virus Replication

Vassilaki, N.; Kalliampakou, K. I.; Kotta-Loizou, I.; Befani, C.; Liakos, P.; Simos, G.; Mentis, A. F.; Kalliaropoulos, A.; Doumba, P. P.; Smirlis, D.; Foka, P.; Bauhofer, O.; Poenisch, M.; Windisch, M. P.; Lee, M. E.; Koskinas, J.; Bartenschlager, R.; Mavromara, P. (2013)

Low oxygen tension exerts a significant effect on the replication of several DNA and RNA viruses in cultured cells. In vitro propagation of hepatitis C virus (HCV) has thus far been studied under atmospheric oxygen levels ...

No adverse effects of statins on muscle function and health-related parameters in the elderly: An exercise study

Panayiotou, G.; Paschalis, V.; Nikolaidis, M. G.; Theodorou, A. A.; Deli, C. K.; Fotopoulou, N.; Fatouros, I. G.; Koutedakis, Y.; Sampanis, M.; Jamurtas, A. Z. (2013)

The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of a repeated bout of eccentric exercise on health-related parameters and muscle performance on subjects undergoing atorvastatin therapy. Twenty-eight elderly men ...

Oxidative stress and inflammatory responses following an acute bout of isokinetic exercise in obese women with knee osteoarthritis

Germanou, E. I.; Chatzinikolaou, A.; Malliou, P.; Beneka, A.; Jamurtas, A. Z.; Bikos, C.; Tsoukas, D.; Theodorou, A.; Katrabasas, I.; Margonis, K.; Douroudos, I.; Gioftsidou, A.; Fatouros, I. G. (2013)

Background: Obesity is associated with osteoarthritis and it is accompanied by chronic inflammation and elevated oxidative stress. Strengthening-type exercise is used in knee osteoarthritis (KOA) rehabilitation. This study ...
