چکیده

actins are small globular filaments functioning in cell processes like muscle contraction, and stabilized to the sarcomeric z- discs by actin binding proteins (actinins). one of the important gene coding for actin binding proteins in fast twitch fibers is alpha- actinin- 3 (actn3). in this research, we have conducted a gene profile study investigating the genotype and allele distributions of actn3 r577x polymorphism in turkish professional hip- hop and latin dancers and compared them to non-dancers as a control group. 30 professional dancers and non-dancers were recruited for the study. a genotyping procedure was carried out by a newly introduced four-primer pcr methodology. for statistical analysis, the chi-square test was used to compare data between the groups (p<0,05 evaluated as significant). numbers and the percentages of dancers were 2 (7%), 21 (70%) and 7(23%) for rr, rx and xx genotypes, respectively. the same numbers and the percentages were 15 (50%), 8 (15%) and 7 (23%) for rr, rx and xx genotypes, respectively, for the controls. allele numbers and percentages of the r allele were 38 (63%) and 25 (42%) for the control and dancers, respectively. for x allele, the respective number for control and dancers were 22 (37%) and 35 (58%). no significant difference was detected between the groups in the terms of genotypes and alleles. only rx genotype was significantly different between dancers and non-dancers (p<0,05). the results of the present and the first study, associating professional dancers and actn3 r577x polymorphism, is suggesting that rx genotype may have an genetic advantage for the physical predisposition for dancing, at least in the terms of actn3 r577x polymorphism. prospective studies with extended numbers of dancers focusing on the influence of actn3 r577x polymorphism are required for confirmation of these findings.

Alpha-actinin-3 (ACTN3) R577X polymorphism influences knee extensor peak power response to strength training in older men and women.

BACKGROUND The alpha-actinin-3 (ACTN3) R577X polymorphism has been associated with muscle power performance in cross-sectional studies. METHODS We examined baseline knee extensor concentric peak power (PP) and PP change with approximately 10 weeks of unilateral knee extensor strength training (ST) using air-powered resistance machines in 71 older men (65 [standard deviation = 8] years) and 86...

Evaluation of movements of lower limbs in non-professional ballet dancers: hip abduction and flexion

BACKGROUND The literature indicated that the majority of professional ballet dancers present static and active dynamic range of motion difference between left and right lower limbs, however, no previous study focused this difference in non-professional ballet dancers. In this study we aimed to evaluate active movements of the hip in non-professional classical dancers. METHODS We evaluated 10 ...

Perceptions of the motivational climate, need satisfaction, and indices of well- and ill-being among hip hop dancers.

Grounded in the self-determination theoretical framework (SDT) formulated by Deci and Ryan, and specifically the basic needs mini-theory (BNT), this study examined the relationship between perceptions of the motivational climate manifested in hip hop environments, satisfaction of the three basic needs, and indicators of well- and ill-being among hip hop dancers. Fifty-nine hip hop dancers (mean...

Investigation of the Relationship Between a Genetic Polymorphism in ACTN3 and Elite Sport Performance Among Iranian Soccer Players

Objectives: Polymorphisms in &alpha;-actinin-3 (ACTN3) gene are considered to be important in the genetic predisposition to human athletic performance. Most of the activities in soccer such as jumping, striking the ball, and running are considered plyometric and explosive. Performance power during such activities depends on the strength of the muscles involved. Therefore, high muscle strength i...
