Respiratory muscle work and inspiratory muscle training on cytokines, oxidative stress and diaphragm fatigue in younger and older populations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Increased respiratory muscle work is encountered during strenuous whole-body exercise, and at rest in older adults and those with pulmonary limitations such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Iron homeostasis disruption and lipid peroxidation in skeletal muscle during short‐term immobilization

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
14‐day casting‐induced immobilization reduced gastrocnemius muscle mass and increased non‐heme iron and ferritin heavy chain levels. Despite iron accumulation, transferrin receptor 1 and iron regulatory protein 2 were paradoxically upregulated. Lipid peroxidation was elevated without compensatory antioxidant responses.

Manual testing of respiratory muscles in adults with asthma: a intra and interrater reliability and validity study

open access: yesRevista Ciencias de la Salud
Background: Manual Muscle Testing (MMT) is a useful tool to evaluate ventilatory mechanics in adults with asthma. However, in the reviewed literature, there are few studies that report psychometric features of this test.

Pulmonary Rehabilitation - PR

open access: yesAlbanian Journal of Trauma and Emergency Surgery, 2020
Chronic respiratory diseases are associated with severe, not only pulmonary, but also systemic damage such as dysfunction of peripheral muscles, dysfunction of respiratory muscles, nutritional disorders, cardiac injuries, skeletal disorders, sensory ...

Time‐restricted feeding prior to Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection reduces tissue CD4+ T cells with limited impact on bacterial clearance

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Time‐restricted feeding (TRF) in mice increased liver fatty acid oxidation and decreased fatty acid biosynthesis. These alterations persisted when TRF was discontinued and the host was infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Pre‐exposure to TRF did not alter tissue (lung and spleen) mycobacterial burden but significantly reduced CD3+ T cells in lungs

Physiological consequences of the work of breathing and of inspiratory muscle training [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
A reduced blood lactate concentration ([lac-]B) is commonly observed during whole-body exercise following inspiratory muscle training (IMT). However, whether the inspiratory muscles are, in part, the source of these reductions remains unknown ...

On the excitation and inhibition of the inspiratory neuron in the respiratory centers [PDF]

open access: yes, 1956
In decerebrated cats the impulse discharges were detected by means of an unipolar microelectrode from a single inspiratory neuron in the respiratory centers, and the change in discharge produced by administration of stimulating, as well as depressant ...

Cyclic azapeptide CD36 ligand attenuates cardiac injury and reduces long‐chain fatty acid accumulation after myocardial ischemia–reperfusion in mice

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In a murine model of myocardial ischemia and reperfusion (MI/R), the CD36 azapeptide ligand MPE‐298 reduces cardiac injury and transiently lowers left ventricular long‐chain fatty acids (LCFAs) accumulation 3 h after reperfusion, accompanied by a decrease of oxidative stress and inflammation‐associated genes' expression in the heart and adipose tissue.

Development of histochemical and functional properties of baboon respiratory muscles [PDF]

open access: yes, 1983
We assessed morphological, histochemical, and physiological characteristics of respiratory muscles of a non-human primate, Papio cynocephalus, from midgestation through adult life.

Deep learning-based respiratory muscle segmentation as a potential imaging biomarker for respiratory function assessment.

open access: yesPLoS ONE
Respiratory diseases significantly affect respiratory function, making them a considerable contributor to global mortality. The respiratory muscles play an important role in disease prognosis; as such, quantitative analysis of the respiratory muscles is ...
