The Effect of Exercise Training on Cardiovascular Mortality Risk
(East Carolina University, 2016-05-03)
Clinicians use risk calculators in primary prevention to estimate CVD mortality. A potential limitation of available risk calculators are they generally estimate risk based on traditional risk factors, which is problematic ...
The Influence of Maternal Exercise Type on Heart Measures at One Month
(East Carolina University, 2016-05-03)
Objective: The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of aerobic, resistance, and circuit training during pregnancy on infant heart measures at 1 month of age. We hypothesized that there would be differences ...
Short-term, high-fat diet accelerates disuse atrophy and protein degradation in a muscle-specific manner in mice
(2015-11-04)
Background:
A short-term high-fat diet impairs mitochondrial function and the ability of skeletal muscle to respond to growth stimuli, but it is unknown whether such a diet alters the ability to respond to atrophy signals. ...
Deletion of LPCAT3 Promotes Enhanced Insulin Signaling in Skeletal Muscle
(East Carolina University, 2015-12-15)
Aberrant lipid metabolism has been linked to skeletal muscle insulin resistance. The exact identity of the lipid species that promote skeletal muscle insulin resistance among the human population remains unclear. In this ...
