The intestinal absorption of D-xylose was studied during the subchronic poisoning of male Wistar rats with orally administered potassium nitrate and sodium nitrite associated with exercise; running on a moving track during the last two weeks of poisoning. The metabolic parameters of Na+/K(+)-ATPase,
Nitric oxide (NO) plays an important role in controlling microcirculatory function, but the effects of exogenous administration of nitrate (NO3-) on the microcirculation have not been well studied. We evaluated whether NO3- could influence the microvascular response to hypoxia in 17 healthy
Inorganic nitrate has been shown to reduce oxygen cost during exercise. Since the nitrate-nitrite-NO pathway is facilitated during hypoxia, we investigated the effects of dietary nitrate on oxygen consumption and cardiovascular responses during apnea. These variables were measured in two randomized,
Roots are subjected to a range of abiotic stresses as they forage for water and nutrients. Cytosolic free calcium is a common second messenger in the signaling of abiotic stress. In addition, roots take up calcium both as a nutrient and to stimulate exocytosis in growth. For calcium to fulfill its
