Hormonal response to L-arginine supplementation in physically active individuals
BACKGROUND Nutritional supplements based on the amino acid L-arginine have been hypothesized to improve exercise performance by increasing levels of insulin and growth hormone (GH). Changes of these parameters in response to L-arginine supplementation may clarify the mechanisms underlying its putative physiological effects on physical performance. OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to evaluat...
متن کاملDietary L-arginine supplementation normalizes platelet aggregation in hypercholesterolemic humans.
OBJECTIVES The present study was designed to test the hypothesis that long-term dietary supplementation with the nitric oxide precursor L-arginine would enhance vascular or platelet-derived nitric oxide activity, or both, and thereby inhibit platelet reactivity in hypercholesterolemic humans. BACKGROUND We have shown that reduced vascular activity of nitric oxide in hypercholesterolemic rabbi...
متن کاملDietary L-arginine supplementation attenuates lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammatory response in broiler chickens.
In the present study, two experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of dietary L-arginine (Arg) supplementation on the inflammatory response and innate immunity of broiler chickens. Expt 1 was designed as a 2 × 3 factorial arrangement (n 8 cages/treatment; n 6 birds/cage) with three dietary Arg concentrations (1.05, 1.42 and 1.90%) and two immune treatments (injection of lipopolysacc...
متن کاملperformance, immune responses of heat stressed broiler chicks in response to dietary levels of propolis
this experiment was performed to investigate the effects of propolis and chromium picolinate on performance and immune response of broiler chicken under heat stress conditions. treatments included different levels of propolis (500, 1000, and 1500 mg/kg) and chromium picolinate (1500 µg/ kg) along with a control group. a completely randomized design was taken into account with 4 replicates of 10...
متن کاملImmunoglobulins in piglets from sows heat-stressed prepartum.
Sows were subjected to moderate heat stress in a chamber (32 C) from d 100 of pregnancy until less than 8 h before delivery of first piglet, while control sows were in a thermoneutral chamber (21 C) or farrowing house (22 C). Blood serum and colostrum at parturition of heat-stressed sows and their piglets' serum at birth had elevated cortisol concentrations. Total protein, globulin and immunogl...
