Acute resistance exercise results in catecholaminergic rather than hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis stimulation during exercise in young men
(2010)Exercise is a paradigm of a stress situation. The adaptive response to stressors comprises the activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and components of the autonomic sympathetic system. An aseptic ... -
Assessment of Eccentric Exercise-Induced Oxidative Stress Using Oxidation-Reduction Potential Markers
(2015)The aim of the present study was to investigate the use of static (sORP) and capacity ORP (cORP) oxidation-reduction potential markers as measured by the RedoxSYS Diagnostic System in plasma, for assessing eccentric ... -
Blockage of ghrelin-induced prolactin secretion in women by bromocriptine
(2010)Objective: To investigate the effect of bromocriptine on ghrelin-induced PRL secretion in women. Design: Longitudinal study. Setting: University hospital. Patient(s): Ten healthy, normally cycling women. Intervention(s): ... -
A COMPARISON OF STRENGTH AND STRETCH INTERVENTIONS ON ACTIVE AND PASSIVE RANGES OF MOVEMENT IN DANCERS: A RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED TRIAL
(2013)Wyon, MA, Smith, A, and Koutedakis, Y. A comparison of strength and stretch interventions on active and passive ranges of movement in dancers: a randomized controlled trial. J Strength Cond Res 27(11): 3053-3059, 2013The ... -
Determination of N-acetylation phenotyping in a Greek population using caffeine as a metabolic probe
(1998)Studies of isoniazid, the well known antituberculosis drug, have revealed that N-acetylation polymorphism, is of great clinical importance. In humans, N-acetylation is one of the most important pathways in the inactivation ... -
Effect of 4 weeks of basic military training on peripheral blood leucocytes and urinary excretion of catecholamines and cortisol
(2005)In this study, we assessed the effects of a 4 week basic military physical training programme for male recruits of the Hellenic Air Force on the number and distribution of circulating immune cells and adrenergic and ... -
The effect of eccentric exercise on position sense and joint reaction angle of the lower limbs
(2007)Impaired position sense and impaired joint reaction angle of the lower limbs after muscle-damaging activities is a serious functional limitation that may lead to an increased risk of injury, particularly in older populations. ... -
Effect of ghrelin on gonadotrophin secretion in women during the menstrual cycle
(2009)It has been suggested that ghrelin may affect reproduction in animals by decreasing pituitary LH secretion. The role of ghrelin on LH secretion in women has not been investigated. Our aim was to assess the effect of ghrelin ... -
The Effect of Prolonged Intradialytic Exercise in Hemodialysis Efficiency Indices
(2011)Optimal hemodialysis (HD) dose is very important to patients' health and survival, and various indices of adequacy have been incorporated into the current clinical practice to monitor HD efficiency. Exercise during HD could ... -
The effects of acute exercise on serum adiponectin and resistin levels and their relation to insulin sensitivity in overweight males
(2006)The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of a submaximal aerobic exercise bout on adiponectin and resistin levels as well as insulin sensitivity, until 48 h post-exercise in healthy overweight males. Nine ... -
The effects of muscle damage on running economy in healthy males
(2005)Published information on aspects related to Muscle damage and running economy is both limited and contradictory. To contribute to the current debate, we investigated the effects of an eccentric exercise session on selected ... -
Equal volumes of high and low intensity of eccentric exercise in relation to muscle damage and performance
(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 ... -
Glycemic Response of a Carbohydrate-Protein Bar with Ewe-Goat Whey
(2014)In this study we examined the glycaemic index (GI) and glycaemic load (GL) of a functional food product, which contains ewe-goat whey protein and carbohydrates in a 1: 1 ratio. Nine healthy volunteers, (age, 23.3 +/- 3.9 ... -
Hand preference of individuals with blindness in everyday activities: The effects of age of sight loss, age, and gender
(2014)The research aims of the present study were: (a) to assess the hand preference of blind persons in everyday activities on the basis of gender, type of blindness, and age; and (b) to conduct the above analysis at both the ... -
Inhibitory Effect of Submaximal Doses of Ghrelin on Gonadotropin Secretion in Women
(2014)The effect of ghrelin on gonadotropin secretion has been equivocal. Recent data have shown an inhibitory effect of repeated injections of ghrelin on nocturnal LH and FSH secretion in women. The aim of this study was to ... -
Leptin levels in women with polycystic ovary syndrome before and after treatment with diazoxide
(1998)Leptin, a product of the ob gene, is a 16 kDa protein which is produced by adipocytes. In humans, obesity is a common finding in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). The role, however, of leptin in PCOS is not clear ... -
Local infusion of ascorbate augments NO-dependent cutaneous vasodilatation during intense exercise in the heat
(2015)Nitric oxide (NO)-dependent cutaneous vasodilatation is reportedly diminished during exercise performed at a high (700W) relative to moderate (400W) rate of metabolic heat production. The present study evaluated whether ... -
A new RT-PCR assay for the identification of the predominant recombination types in 2C and 3D genomic regions of vaccine-derived poliovirus strains
(2010)In the post-eradication era of wild polioviruses, the only remaining sources of poliovirus infection worldwide would be the vaccine-derived polioviruses (VDPVs). As the preponderance of countries certified to be polio-free ... -
No effect of antioxidant supplementation on muscle performance and blood redox status adaptations to eccentric training
(2011)Background: It was recently reported that antioxidant supplementation decreases training efficiency and prevents cellular adaptations to chronic exercise. Objective: This study aimed to investigate the effects of vitamin ... -
Passive smoking reduces and vitamin C increases exercise-induced oxidative stress: Does this make passive smoking an anti-oxidant and vitamin C a pro-oxidant stimulus?
(2014)The current interpretative framework states that, for a certain experimental treatment (usually a chemical substance) to be classified as "anti-oxidant", it must possess the property of reducing (or even nullifying) ...
