Astaxanthin in Exercise Metabolism, Performance and Recovery: A Review

Astaxanthin in Exercise Metabolism, Performance and Recovery: A Review

During periods of heavy exercise training and competition, lipid, protein, and nucleic molecules can become damaged due to an overproduction of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS) within the exercising organism. As antioxidants can prevent and delay cellular oxidative damage through removing, deactivating, and preventing the formation of RONS, supplementation with exogenous antioxidant ...

Metabolomics Application in Exercise Metabolism Research: A Review Study

Metabolomics, is a comprehensive measure of small metabolites (<1500 Da), which has attracted enormous attention in the last two decades. Metabolomics, in particular investigates unique biochemical fingerprints left behind by specific cellular processes, which represent the metabolic status. Exercise metabolism researchers have started to use this method since 2007. Metabolomics has been used t...

Regulation of Protein Metabolism in Exercise and Recovery Aging, exercise, and muscle protein metabolism

Koopman R, van Loon LJ. Aging, exercise, and muscle protein metabolism. J Appl Physiol 106: 2040–2048, 2009. First published January 8, 2009; doi:10.1152/japplphysiol.91551.2008.—Aging is accompanied by a progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass and strength, leading to the loss of functional capacity and an increased risk of developing chronic metabolic disease. The age-related loss of skeleta...

Physical Activity and Exercise Recommendations in Pregnancy; a Review Study

Many women today tend to exercise during pregnancy. Given the importance of this period of life, the present study was conducted to investigate the effects of exercise on pregnancy and the recommendations that should be considered. According to studies, despite physiological and anatomical changes in pregnancy, physical activity in improving cardiovascular fitness, preventing overweight, preven...
