Muscle wasting in cancer cachexia: Mechanisms and the role of exercise

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cancer cachexia (CC) is a multifactorial disease marked by a severe and progressive loss of lean muscle mass and characterized further by inflammation and a negative energy/protein balance, ultimately leading to muscle atrophy and loss of muscle tissue.

Blood flow restriction exercise during microgravity exposure in parabolic flight

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract This case report evaluates whether it is possible to perform blood flow restriction (BFR) exercise during exposure to microgravity. The objectives were three‐fold: (1) to determine if a personalised tourniquet system (PTS) hardware technology performs nominally and enables BFR exercise in microgravity; (2) to determine if BFR augments the ...

Cerebral haemodynamic responses to inspiratory muscle work

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Fatiguing inspiratory work has been shown to evoke a sympathetically mediated reflex that has systemic cardiovascular consequences, including increases in heart rate and blood pressure and a decrease in resting limb vascular conductance. Moreover, the response to this reflex appears to be attenuated in females compared with males.

Noradrenergic regulation of skeletal muscle oxygen pressures: Impact of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction and heat therapy

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Attenuation of sympathetic vasoconstriction during exercise (functional sympatholysis) contributes to skeletal muscle oxygen delivery–utilization matching. However, the extent to which muscle contractions impact noradrenergic regulation of interstitial oxygen pressures (PO2is${P_{{{\mathrm{O}}_2}}}_{{\mathrm{is}}}$; the driving force for blood–

ZFP36 inhibits the pro‐apoptotic effects of transforming growth factor β1 on mitral valve interstitial cells via the GTP‐binding protein 6 pathway in mitral valve prolapse

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The objective of this work was to investigate the role of ZFP36 in mitral valve prolapse (MVP). Mitral valve and plasma were collected to assess the expression of ZFP36, transforming growth factor β (TGF‐β), collagen and elastin and apoptosis rates.
