Mitochondrial Oxidative Capacity In Human Skeletal Muscle: Association with Plasma Lactate Concentration
(East Carolina University, 2018-07-11)
ABSTRACT Background: Metabolic disease is a growing concern for public health. Obesity and Type II Diabetes are an epidemic and a phenotype for insulin resistance in human skeletal muscle. A reduced mitochondrial function ...
Shearwave elastography : a prospective study on short term changes in UCL health of college baseball pitchers
(East Carolina University, 2018-07-31)
The rate of ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) reconstruction surgery, or "Tommy John" surgery, has risen dramatically in baseball pitchers over the last decade. Throughout the baseball pitching motion, the UCL undergoes ...
AMP Deaminase 3 knockout mice and loss of mitochondrial proteins and enzyme activity during denervation atrophy
(East Carolina University, 2018-07-17)
Muscle atrophy leads to decrements in muscle function, partly attributable to decreased mitochondrial content. One controller of mitochondrial content is AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), which when bound by AMP activates ...
Progressive Loads in the Tibia During Exercise Related Activity
(East Carolina University, 2018-05-03)
Introduction: Bone stress injuries represent ~10% of injuries associated with sports and exercise and typically result in prolonged periods of recovery, costly diagnostic medical imaging, and exercise participation attrition. ...
THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN LACTATE, MITOCHONDRIA, AND PEROXISOMES IN HUMAN SKELETAL MUSCLE
(East Carolina University, 2018-05-03)
Human metabolism is a complex mechanism involving many interdependent parts. The purpose of this paper is to explore the relationship or lack thereof between lactate, mitochondria, and peroxisomes in human skeletal muscle. ...
Stretching as pre-intervention can improve aged muscle's response to a resistance training intervention
(East Carolina University, 2018-08-30)
Sarcopenia represents an important problem in older women affecting their physical function. Resistance training interventions in older adults have been widely investigated, and the effect they have in this population have ...
Physical Activity Levels, Barriers, and Facilitators Encountered In Adolescents with and Without Autism Spectrum Disorder
(East Carolina University, 2018-07-31)
While physical activity is beneficial to adolescent health and development, only 25% of adolescents met the physical activity recommendations of 60 minutes of physical activity daily. Research has shown adolescents with ...
