Women in space: A review of known physiological adaptations and health perspectives

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Exposure to the spaceflight environment causes adaptations in most human physiological systems, many of which are thought to affect women differently from men. Since only 11.5% of astronauts worldwide have been female, these issues are largely understudied.

50% body weight loading reduces stature increases and lumbar disc expansion from 4 h hyper‐buoyancy floatation versus 15 min sitting upright

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Microgravity is associated with stature increases, back pain and post‐flight intervertebral disc (IVD) herniation. This study aims to determine whether 30 s seated 50% body weight (BW) axial loading is comparable to 15 min sitting upright in 1 g upon changes in stature, anterior lumbar IVD height (via ultrasound), passive vertebral stiffness ...

Clinical significance of exercise‐induced hypoalgesia in individuals with temporomandibular disorders and neck pain: A clinical trial protocol

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Evidence reports positive effects of neck motor control and aerobic exercises (AEs) to improve pain in individuals with temporomandibular disorders (TMD) and neck pain. A single bout of exercise typically leads to an increase in pain thresholds up to 30 min post‐exercise, known as exercise‐induced hypoalgesia (EIH).

Carotid artery dissection linked to intermittent apnoeic swimming: A case–control study

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Internal carotid artery (ICA) dissection is a rare and potentially devastating cause of cerebral ischaemia, initiated by an intimal tear or rupture of the vasa vasorum, that can lead to an intraluminal thrombus, vascular stenosis, occlusion, or dissecting aneurysm formation.

A comparison of normobaric and hypobaric hypoxia effects on cerebrovascular response pre and post maximal exercise

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract A lack of consensus remains on whether normobaric hypoxia (NH) and hypobaric hypoxia (HH) may differentially impact physiological factors affecting cerebrovascular regulation, particularly with an additional strenuous exercise component. We sought to compare the acute effects of NH and HH on global cerebral blood flow (gCBF) at an altitude ...

Adenine nucleotide translocator and ATP synthase cooperate in mediating the mitochondrial permeability transition

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Both ATP synthase and adenine nucleotide translocator (ANT) play key roles in mediating the permeability transition. The contribution of ANT becomes evident in the presence of atractylate (ATR) at pH 6.5, a condition that prevents ATP synthase channel activity. At pH 7.4, this effect is minimal, suggesting a critical role for ATP

Metabolic stimulation improves bioenergetics and haematologic indices of circulating erythrocytes from sickle cell mice

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Metabolic stimulation improves bioenergetics, redox state, hydration and hematologic indices of circulating erythrocytes from sickle cell mice. Retained mitochondria in circulating RBCs from sickle mice are a source of RBC ATP as mitochondria function (ETC, electron transport chain) inhibitors [rotenone, a mitochondrial complex I

A deep learning‐enabled toolkit for the 3D segmentation of ventricular cardiomyocytes

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend 3D cardiomyocyte segmentation enables comprehensive analyses of myocardial microstructure in health and disease; however, it is technically demanding. We present an open‐source toolkit for this task, which reduces challenges associated with sample preparation, image restoration, segmentation and proofreading.

Anatomical and functional mapping of vagal nociceptive sensory nerve subsets innervating the mouse lower airways by intersectional genetics

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend We used an intersectional approach with recombinase‐expressing mice and adeno‐associated virus to map and modulate distinct nociceptive afferents in the vagal ganglia. TRPV1+P2X2+ neurons resided in the nodose ganglion (N), innervated the lungs (many projected into the alveoli) but not the trachea, and projected to the nucleus ...
