Skeletal Muscle Purine Nucleotide Degradation and Atrophy: Cause or Consequence of Increased Uric Acid Production
(East Carolina University, 2022-07-26)Elevated serum uric acid is a risk factor for mortality in diseases and critical illnesses associated with skeletal muscle atrophy. Uric acid is generated by xanthine oxidoreductase (XOR) and XOR inhibitors can partially ... -
LONG-LASTING EFFECTS OF MTBI ON OCULOMOTOR ABILITY AND NEUROMUSCULAR CONTROL
(East Carolina University, 2022-07-22)Concussions result in short-lived to long-lasting neurological function impairment and disturbances, typically undetectable by standard neuroimaging protocols, which can persist for several months post-trauma. Eye-tracking ... -
Characterization of the glucose transport mechanism responsible for mechanical overload- and acute injury-stimulated skeletal muscle glucose uptake
(East Carolina University, 2022-06-24)Skeletal muscle is a highly adaptable tissue. In response to stimuli such as resistance exercise training or trauma/injury, muscle glucose uptake is stimulated to fuel the energetic and biosynthetic demands of growth, ...
