Recently, low-level laser (light) therapy has been used to increase muscle performance in intense exercises. However, there is a lack of understanding of the time response of muscles to light therapy. The first purpose of this study was to determine the time response for light-emitting diode therapy
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is the sole fuel for muscle contraction. During near maximal intense exercise the muscle store of ATP will be depleted in < 1s, therefore, to maintain normal contractile function ATP must be continually resynthesized. During intense exercise (from approximately 75% VO2
Patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) experience fatigue due to impaired myocardial bioenergetics. Cardiomyocyte function depends on the delivery of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), yet there is no convenient bedside method to measure ATP. The purpose of Lowery, RP, Joy, JM, Rathmacher, JA, Baier, SM, Fuller, JC Jr, Shelley, MC II, Jäger, R, Purpura, M, Wilson, SMC, and Wilson, JM. Interaction of beta-hydroxy-beta-methylbutyrate free acid and adenosine triphosphate on muscle mass, strength, and power in resistance trained individuals. J Strength
Fatigue stands among the most debilitating multiple sclerosis (MS) manifestations. Several pathophysiological mechanisms have been proposed at its origin. However, unmet needs still exist, and further investigations are required to better understand and manage this complaint. A new imaging
Fatigue and myalgia are common in patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). To determine whether altered muscle metabolism or impaired activation of muscle might account for these symptoms, we utilized three different exercise protocols to produce fatigue in nine AIDS patients who
A rat model was used to study the effects of endotoxemic shock in vivo on diaphragmatic tension generation and diaphragmatic metabolism in vitro. Animals were injected with E. coli lipopolysaccharide (30 mg/kg) and killed at fixed times after injection. The hemidiaphragms were isolated in an organ
Neurospectroscopy allows biochemical processes in the brain to be studied non-invasively. At magnetic field strengths of 1.5 T or higher, cerebral proton neurospectroscopy allows the ascertainment of values of myo-inositol, choline-containing compounds, creatine, glutamate, glutamine, and N-acetyl
Irpex lacteus is a white rot basidiomycete proposed for a wide spectrum of biotechnological applications. However, few studies examined its effects on exercise performance and physical fatigue. The present study evaluated the potential beneficial effects of I. lacteus extract (ILE) on physical
Fatigue experienced by cancer patients is one of the most common symptoms with the greatest adverse effect on quality of life, but arguably the least understood. The purpose of this study was to explore changes in integrated mitochondrial function and fatigue in non-metastatic prostate Skeletal muscle nitric oxide-cyclic guanosine monophosphate (NO-cGMP) pathways are impaired in Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy partly because of reduced nNOSμ and soluble guanylate cyclase (GC) activity. However, GC function and the consequences of reduced GC activity in skeletal muscle are
BACKGROUND
Diaphragmatic fatigue causes respiratory failure, for which aminophylline has been used as therapy. Because the mechanism of action of aminophylline in reversing diaphragmatic fatigue is unclear, we used in vivo 31P magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) to determine the relation between
Peripheral fatigue results from an overactivity-induced decline in muscle function that originates from non-central nervous system mechanisms. A common symptom of fatigue is a feeling of tiredness or weariness because of overexertion, such as that associated with intense or prolonged physical
During exercise, intracellular homeostasis depends on the matching of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) supply and ATP demand. Metabolites play a useful role in communicating the extent of ATP demand to the metabolic supply pathways. During fatigue from high-intensity exercise, a major change in the
