Antioxidant supplementation and immunoendocrine responses to prolonged exercise

Article Abstract:

The effects of daily vitamin C and vitamin E supplementation on immunoendocrine responses on prolonged exercise are examined, as antioxidant supplementation is supposed to modulate cortisol and interleukin responses. The analysis reveals that such supplementation may blunt the cortisol response on prolonged exercises but does not help in modulating the exercise-induced neutrophilia or depression of neutrophil function.

Effects of eccentric exercise on NF-kappaB activation in blood mononuclear cells

Article Abstract:

A study investigates the various changes taking place in the nuclear factor kappaB (NF-kappaB) activation that takes place in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) due to acute eccentric exercise and submaximal eccentric training. The results demonstrate that though the training highly attenuates the NF-kappaB dependent pathway changes in PBMC, they are certainly not at all affected by the repeated bout effect.

Heritability in neuromuscular coordination: implications for motor control strategies

Article Abstract:

A study to assess the relative power of genetic and environmental contribution to variation in neuromuscular coordination is conducted, comparing intrapair differences between monozygotic (MZ) and dizygotic (DZ) twins. It was found that heredity accounted for most of the existing differences in neuromuscular coordination in fast movements.
