Download or read book Skeletal Muscle Metabolic Flexibility Impairments in Response to Lipid with Obesity written by Gina Battaglia and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Obese individuals exhibit skeletal muscle metabolic inflexibility by failing to increase fat oxidation and genes linked with mitochondrial biogenesis in response to a high-fat diet (HFD) and lipid incubation in cell culture. Exercise training can increase skeletal muscle fatty acid oxidation (FAO) and mitochondrial content in the skeletal muscle of the obese, although whether it can normalize the response to excess lipid is unclear. The purpose of this dissertation was to determine whether metabolic flexibility in response to lipid could be rescued by short-term aerobic exercise training (study 1) and chemically uncoupling primary human skeletal muscle cells (HSkMC) to increase cell energy expenditure (study 2) in obese skeletal muscle. The hypotheses were that 1) obese individuals would exhibit skeletal muscle metabolic inflexibility in response to a 3d eucaloric high-fat diet (HFD; 70% total calories) in study 1, a defect that would persist in response to 24h lipid incubation in HSkMC (study 2); and 2) 10 consecutive days of aerobic exercise training (study 1), and mild uncoupling in vitro (study 2) would normalize the response to excess lipid in the skeletal muscle of obese individuals. Unlike the lean, obese individuals did not increase skeletal muscle FAO in response to a 3d HFD while sedentary (study 1) and did not increase protein content of Complex I, Complex III, and COX IV in response to 24h lipid incubation in HSkMC (study 2), supporting our hypothesis of lipid-induced metabolic inflexibility in obese skeletal muscle. Exercise training combined with a HFD produced a similar increase in FAO and citrate synthase (CS) activity in lean and obese individuals (study 1), indicating that HFD-induce metabolic flexibility was restored with exercise training regardless of obesity status. Incubation with the chemical uncoupler FCCP and lipid exhibited a treatment effect for Complex I and Complex III, although the latter appeared to be driven by the robust lean response, and increased COX IV content in the lean only. Therefore, lipid-induced metabolic inflexibility is persistent in cell culture, and increasing energy expenditure in vitro does not fully restore the response to lipid in a manner similar to in vivo exercise training.

Antioxidants in Sport Nutrition covers antioxidant use in the athlete ́s basic nutrition and discusses the controversies surrounding the usefulness of antioxidant supplementation. The book also stresses how antioxidants may affect immunity, health, and exercise performance. The book contains scientifically based chapters explaining the basic mechanisms of exercise-induced oxidative damage. Also covered are methodological approaches to assess the effectiveness of antioxidant treatment. Biomarkers are discussed as a method to estimate the bioefficacy of dietary/supplemental antioxidants in sports. This book is useful for sport nutrition scientists, physicians, exercise physiologists, product developers, sport practitioners, coaches, top athletes, and recreational athletes. In it, they will find objective information and practical guidance.

Download or read book Nutrition and Skeletal Muscle written by Stéphane Walrand and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2018-10-24 with total page 590 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nutrition and Skeletal Muscle provides coverage of the evidence of dietary components that have proven beneficial for bettering adverse changes in skeletal muscle from disuse and aging. Skeletal muscle is the largest tissue in the body, providing elements of contraction and locomotion and acting as an important contributor to whole body protein and amino metabolism, glucose disposal and lipid metabolism. However, muscle loss, atrophy or weakness can occur when there are metabolic imbalances, disuse or aging. This book addresses the topic by providing insight and research from international leaders, making it the go-to reference for those in skeletal muscle physiology. Provides an understanding of the crucial role of skeletal muscle in global metabolic homeostasis regulation Delivers the information needed to understand the utilization of crucial supplements for the preservation of skeletal muscle Presents insights on research from international leaders in the field

Download or read book Frailty and Sarcopenia written by Yannis Dionyssiotis and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2017-08-30 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Frailty is considered a multisystem impairment that makes an individual vulnerable to external or internal stressors. Sarcopenia, the age-dependent loss of muscle mass and function, is proposed as the biological substrate and the pathway whereby the consequences of physical frailty develop. These syndromes are associated with a negative impact in quality of life and can lead to the occurrence of disability, institutionalization, and even mortality. The book focuses upon all the related aspects of frailty and sarcopenia and the new advancements in the related treatments including complex issues and research. It includes high-quality chapters in all related aspects for the syndromes of sarcopenia and frailty, which adversely affect the function and overall effectiveness of the musculoskeletal system and interventions to promote rehabilitation.

Download or read book Monitoring Metabolic Status written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2004-08-29 with total page 469 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. military's concerns about the individual combat service member's ability to avoid performance degradation, in conjunction with the need to maintain both mental and physical capabilities in highly stressful situations, have led to and interest in developing methods by which commanders can monitor the status of the combat service members in the field. This report examines appropriate biological markers, monitoring technologies currently available and in need of development, and appropriate algorithms to interpret the data obtained in order to provide information for command decisions relative to the physiological "readiness" of each combat service member. More specifically, this report also provides responses to questions posed by the military relative to monitoring the metabolic regulation during prolonged, exhaustive efforts, where nutrition/hydration and repair mechanisms may be mismatched to intakes and rest, or where specific metabolic derangements are present.
