Carnosine in health and disease     

Guilherme Giannini Artioli  Craig Sale  Rebecca Louise Jones 《European Journal of Sport Science》2019,19(1):30-39

Abstract

Carnosine was originally discovered in skeletal muscle, where it exists in larger amounts than in other tissues. The majority of research into the physiological roles of carnosine have been conducted on skeletal muscle. Given this and the potential for muscle carnosine content to be increased with supplementation, there is now a large body of research examining the ergogenic effects (or otherwise) of carnosine. More recent research, however, points towards a potential for carnosine to exert a wider range of physiological effects in other tissues, including the brain, heart, pancreas, kidney and cancer cells. Taken together, this is suggestive of a potential for carnosine to have therapeutic benefits in health and disease, although this is by no means without complication. Herein, we will provide a review of the current literature relating to the potential therapeutic effects of carnosine in health and disease.  相似文献   

The effect of exercise interventions on resting metabolic rate: A systematic review and meta-analysis     

Kristen MacKenzie-Shalders  Jaimon T. Kelly  Daniel So  Vernon G. Coffey  Nuala M. Byrne 《Journal of sports sciences》2020,38(14):1635-1649

ABSTRACT

The systematic review and meta-analysis evaluated the effect of aerobic, resistance and combined exercise on RMR (kCal·day^-1) and performed a methodological assessment of indirect calorimetry protocols within the included studies. Subgroup analyses included energy/diet restriction and body composition changes. Randomized control trials (RCTs), quasi – RCTs and cohort trials featuring a physical activity intervention of any form and duration excluding single exercise bouts were included. Participant exclusions included medical conditions impacting upon RMR, the elderly (≥65 years of age) or pregnant, lactating or post-menopausal women. The review was registered in the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (CRD 42,017,058,503). 1669 articles were identified; 22 were included in the qualitative analysis and 18 were meta-analysed. Exercise interventions (aerobic and resistance exercise combined) did not increase resting metabolic rate (mean difference (MD): 74.6 kCal·day^-1[95% CI: ?13.01, 161.33], P = 0.10). While there was no effect of aerobic exercise on RMR (MD: 81.65 kCal·day^-1[95% CI: ?57.81, 221.10], P = 0.25), resistance exercise increased RMR compared to controls (MD: 96.17 kCal·day^-1[95% CI: 45.17, 147.16], P = 0.0002). This systematic review effectively synthesises the effect of exercise interventions on RMR in comparison to controls; despite heterogenous methodologies and high risk of bias within included studies.  相似文献

Personal Review： Sources of sulfide in waste streams and current biotechnologies for its removal   总被引：6，自引：0，他引：6  

MAHMOOD Qaisar ZHENG Ping CAI Jing HAYAT Yousaf HASSAN Muhammad Jaffar WU Dong-lei HU Bao-lan 《浙江大学学报(A卷英文版)》2007,8(7):1126-1140

Sulfide-containing waste streams are generated by a number of industries. It is emitted into the environment as dis- solved sulfide (S2- and HS-) in wastewaters and as H2S in waste gases. Due to its corrosive nature, biological hydrogen sulfide removal processes are being investigated to overcome the chemical and disposal costs associated with existing chemically based removal processes. The nitrogen and sulfur metabolism interacts at various levels of the wastewater treatment process. Hence, the sulfur cycle offers possibilities to integrate nitrogen removal in the treatment process, which needs to be further optimized by appropriate design of the reactor configuration, optimization of performance parameters, retention of biomass and optimization of biomass growth. The present paper reviews the biotechnological advances to remove sulfides from various environments.  相似文献

Chen Peng  Zhou Jun-fu 《浙江大学学报(A卷英文版)》2001,2(4):448-452

Objective: To study the changes of oxidative metabolism and lipoperoxidative metabolism in patients with acute viral myocarditis (AVM), and to research pathological chain reactions of a series of free radicals, and oxidative damage and lipoperoxidative damage in AVM patients' bodies. Methods: A random paired control design was used to investigate 70 cases of AVM patients and 70 cases of healthy adult volunteers (HAV) on the basis of contents of nitric oxide (NO), lipoperoxide (LPO) in plasma, and LPO in red blood cell (RBC) as well as activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) in RBC as revealed by spectrophotometric assays. Results: Compared with the average values (AV) of the above biochemical parameters (BP) in the HAV group, the AV of NO in plasma, and LPO in plasma and in RBC in the AVM group were significantly increased (P=0.0001), while the AV of SOD, CAT and GSH-Px in the AVM group were significantly decreased (P=0.0001). Conclusion: The findings in this study suggested that in the AVM patients bodies the metabolism of NO was disturbed, and the pathological chain reactions of a series of free radicals were so severely aggravated, as to cause the oxidative damage and lipoperoxidative damage in the AVM patients' bodies.  相似文献

Association of Aberrations in One Carbon Metabolism with Intimal Medial Thickening in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus     

R. Dhananjayan  T. Malati  Y. Rupasree  Vijay Kumar Kutala 《Indian journal of clinical biochemistry : IJCB》2015,30(3):263-270

The present work was aimed to study the association of one carbon genetic variants, hyperhomocysteinemia and oxidative stress markers, i.e., serum nitrite, plasma malondialdehyde (MDA) and glutathione (GSH) on intimal medial thickening (IMT) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D). A total number of 76 subjects from ACS Medical College and Hospital, Chennai, India were included in the study, i.e., Group I (n = 42) of T2D and Group II (n = 34) of age- and sex matched healthy controls. The glycated haemoglobin was measured by ion-exchange resin method; plasma homocysteine by Enzyme Linked Immunosorbant Assay method; serum nitrite (nitric oxide, NO), plasma MDA and GSH by spectrophotometric methods; the IMT by high frequency ultrasound. The polymorphisms of one carbon genetic variants were genotyped using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism and amplified fragment length polymorphism methods. Results indicate that methyltetrahydrofolate homocysteine methyl transferase (MTR) A2756G allele was found to be protective in T2D and the other variants were not significantly associated with T2D. Glutamate carboxypeptidase II (GCP II) C1561T (r = 0.34; p = 0.05) and methylene tetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) C677T (r = 0.35; 0.04) showed positive correlation with plasma homocysteine in T2D cases. In this study, MTR A2756G allele was found to be protective in T2D; GCP II C1561T and MTHFR C677T showed positive association with plasma homocysteine in T2D cases. Among all the genetic variants, MTR A2756G was found influence IMT. RFC 1 G80A and TYMS 5′-UTR 2R3R showed synergistically interact with MTR A2756G in influencing increase in IMT.  相似文献

鞠丽丽 《河北体育学院学报》2016,30(6):77-81

过氧化物酶体增殖物激活受体α(PPARα)是参与调控脂代谢、抑制炎症反应和促进脂肪细胞分化的重要细胞核受体.而低氧运动可通过激活一系列分子应答机制,促进机体不同组织PPARα表达及其介导的信号分子通路重新整合,从而改变机体脂代谢体系.利用文献资料法,梳理低氧刺激对机体PPARα表达影响的相关研究,总结不同组织PPARα对其低氧运动产生代偿性适应的可能分子机制,旨在更好地解释低氧环境下运动机体PPARα在调控脂代谢中的作用.  相似文献   

游泳训练及联合补充线粒体营养素α-硫辛酸对wistar2型糖尿病大鼠血脂代谢及脂质过氧化水平的影响     

江红轲  季波 《山东体育学院学报》2011,27(5):49-54

目的:观察2型糖尿病(T2DM)模型大鼠,经8周游泳训练后,血脂代谢、血清氧化应激、血糖(FBG)、胰岛素敏感性(ISI)及肝脏组织二相酶活性变化,检测联合作用方式(游泳训练及联合补充α硫辛酸)对wistarT2DM大鼠血脂代谢及脂质过氧化水平的影响,并探讨其内在影响机制。方法:实验材料wistar大鼠60只,造模完成后随机分成4组,对照组(CON);α硫辛酸(LA);游泳运动组(SEX);α硫辛酸+游泳运动组(LA+SEX),每组15只。进行游泳训练共计8周,观察各组大鼠血脂代谢水平、FBG、ISI及肝脏组织二相酶活性变化。结果:经联合作用方式可极显著性降低wistar大鼠血清总胆固醇和甘油三酯水平,降低LDL-C含量和FFA水平,提高HDL-C;在降低FBG,提高ISI作用上存在叠加效应(P<0.01),对胰岛素水平无显著性影响;在改善血清氧化应激水平作用上(降低ROS和提高SOD),存在增强作用(P<0.01);对肝脏组织二相酶的影响,在对谷胱甘肽-S-转移酶(GST)和谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶(GPX)存在增强作用,对醌氧化还原酶1(NQO-1)则无此作用。结论:联合作用方式可以有效降低血清及肝脏脂质过氧化水平,纠正血脂代谢异常,提高ISI。其保护作用可能是通过降低机体氧化应激水平,维持机体血脂正常代谢水平,减少氧化应激而实现。提示,联合作用方式可以为治疗T2DM提供新思路。  相似文献
