Cell-free plasma DNA as a novel marker of aseptic inflammation severity related to exercise overtraining
(2006)
Background: Circulating free plasma DNA is implicated in conditions associated with tissue injury, including exercise-induced inflammation, and thus is a potential marker for athletic overtraining. Methods: We measured ...
Application of a new oxidation-reduction potential assessment method in strenuous exercise-induced oxidative stress
(2015)
Objectives: The aim of the study was to test a novel method for assessing oxidative stress, the RedoxSYS (TM) diagnostic system, a holistic, fast, minimally invasive, and requiring small sample volume method, that measures ...
The Antioxidant Effects of a Polyphenol-Rich Grape Pomace Extract In Vitro Do Not Correspond In Vivo Using Exercise as an Oxidant Stimulus
(2012)
Fruits, such as grapes, are essential food of the Mediterranean diet. Grape extracts have potent antioxidant and chemopreventive properties in vitro. Numerous studies have examined the effects of plant extract administration ...
Effect of a special carbohydrate-protein bar and tomato juice supplementation on oxidative stress markers and vascular endothelial dynamics in ultra-marathon runners
(2014)
It is well established that exercise induces excessive production of reactive species leading to oxidative stress, which has been implicated in oxidative damage of macromolecules, immune dysfunction, muscle damage and ...
Effects of walking on heart rate recovery, endothelium modulators and quality of life in patients with heart failure
(2011)
Background: Few studies have addressed the impact of moderate unsupervised everyday physical activity in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF). Design: We investigated the effects of a 12-week walking programme as the ...
TIME-COURSE OF CHANGES IN OXIDATIVE STRESS AND ANTIOXIDANT STATUS RESPONSES FOLLOWING A SOCCER GAME
(2010)
Fatouros, IG, Chatzinikolaou, A, Douroudos, II, Nikolaidis, MG, Kyparos, A, Margonis, A, Michailidis, Y, Vantarakis, A, Taxildaris, K, Katrabasas, I, Mandalidis, D, Kouretas, D, and Jamurtas, AZ. Time-course of changes in ...
Study of Insulin Resistance, TNF-alpha, Total Antioxidant Capacity and Lipid Profile in Patients with Chronic Heart Failure under Exercise
(2011)
Gluco-metabolic syndrome, oxidative stress and inflammation are common in chronic heart failure (CHF). Exercise training programmes are known to improve oxidative status, insulin sensitivity and endothelial function. In ...
Resveratrol enhances exercise training responses in rats selectively bred for high running performance
(2013)
High Capacity Runner (HCR) rats have been developed by divergent artificial selection for treadmill endurance running capacity to explore an aerobic biology-disease connection. The beneficial effects of resveratrol ...
Effects of xanthine oxidase inhibition on oxidative stress and swimming performance in rats
(2008)
The aim of this study was to examine the effect of allopurinol, a xanthine oxidase inhibitor, on oxidative stress and physical performance after swimming until exhaustion in rats. Blood and gastrocnemius muscle samples ...
Anti-inflammatory effects of a special carbohydrate-whey protein cake after exhaustive cycling in humans
(2013)
Intense exercise induces increased levels of pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines. Thus, the purpose of this study was to examine the effects of a special cake (consisting of carbohydrate to whey protein 3.5:1) ...
