a variety of anthropometric and training characteristics have been identified as predictor variables for race performance in endurance and ultra-endurance athletes. anthropometric characteristics such as skin-fold thicknesses, body fat, circumferences and length of limbs, body mass, body height, and body mass index were bi-variately related to race performance in endurance athletes such as swim...

PURPOSE Glutathione (GSH) plays a key role in protection against oxidative stress. L-cysteine is thought to be rate-limiting for the synthesis of glutathione (GSH) and therefore may be a critical component in protection against oxidative stress. The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of L-cysteine in GSH metabolism and oxidative stress in human retinal pigment epithelial (hRPE) c...

Autophagy is a natural cellular mechanism in which components such as long-lived proteins and damaged organelles are degraded response to starvation by forming autophagosomes. Viruses activate the autophagy process, generates innate immune protection host against infection. While actual molecular of this contagious viral infection remains unknown, studies on some other betacoronavirus show that...

the present study examined the effect of endurance training on lipid profile, body weight and cardiovascular endurance in normal male rats after bunium persicum extract administration. 40 experimental male rats were divided into 5 groups: control, placebo, endurance training (et), bunium persicum extract administer (bpea) and et – bpea group. the exercise protocol was performed at a speed of 25...
