Antioxidant enzymes and Nrf2/Keap1 in human skeletal muscle: Influence of age, sex, adiposity and aerobic fitness
Galvan-Alvarez, Victor; Gallego-Selles, Angel; Martinez-Canton, Miriam; García-Gonzalez, Eduardo; Gelabert-Rebato, Miriam; Ponce-Gonzalez, Jesus Gustavo; Larsen, Steen; Morales-Alamo, David; Losa-Reyna, Jose; Perez-Suarez, Ismael; Dorado, Cecilia; Perez-Valera, Mario; Holmberg, Hans-Christer; Boushel, Robert; Velasco, Pedro de Pablos; Helge, Jørn Wulff; Martin-Rincon, Marcos; Calbet, José Antonio López (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Ageing, a sedentary lifestyle, and obesity are associated with increased oxidative stress, while regular exercise is associated with an increased antioxidant capacity in trained skeletal muscles. Whether a higher aerobic ... -
Architectural anatomy of the human tibialis anterior presents morphological asymmetries between superficial and deep unipennate regions
Martin-Rodriguez, Saúl; Gonzalez-Henriquez, Juan Jose; Galvan-Alvarez, Victor; Cruz-Ramírez, Sara; Calbet, José Antonio Lopez; Sanchis-Moysi, Joaquín (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The tibialis anterior muscle plays a critical role in human ambulation and contributes to maintaining the upright posture. However, little is known about its muscle architecture in males and females. One hundred and nine ... -
Determinants of the maximal functional reserve during repeated supramaximal exercise by humans: The roles of Nrf2/Keap1, antioxidant proteins, muscle phenotype and oxygenation
Galvan-Alvarez, Victor; Martin-Rincon, Marcos; Gallego-Selles, Angel; Martínez Canton, Miriam; HamedChaman, NaDer; Gelabert-Rebato, Miriam; Perez-Valera, Mario; García-Gonzalez, Eduardo; Santana, Alfredo; Holmberg, Hans-Christer; Boushel, Robert; Hallén, Jostein; Calbet, Jose Antonio Lopez (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)When high-intensity exercise is performed until exhaustion a “functional reserve” (FR) or capacity to produce power at the same level or higher than reached at exhaustion exists at task failure, which could be related to ... -
Fast regulation of the NF-κB signalling pathway in human skeletal muscle revealed by high-intensity exercise and ischaemia at exhaustion: Role of oxygenation and metabolite accumulation
Gallego-Selles, Angel; Galvan-Alvarez, Victor; Martinez-Canton, Miriam; Garcia-Gonzalez, Eduardo; Morales-Alamo, David; Santana, Alfredo; Gonzalez-Henriquez, Juan Jose; Dorado, Cecilia; Calbet, Jose Antonio Lopez; Martin-Rincon, Marcos (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The NF-κB signalling pathway plays a critical role in inflammation, immunity, cell proliferation, apoptosis, and muscle metabolism. NF-κB is activated by extracellular signals and intracellular changes in Ca2+, Pi, H+, ... -
Functional reserve and sex differences during exercise to exhaustion revealed by post-exercise ischaemia and repeated supramaximal exercise
Martin-Rincon, Marcos; Gelabert-Rebato, Miriam; Perez-Valera, Mario; Galvan-Alvarez, Victor; Morales-Alamo, David; Dorado, Cecilia; Boushel, Robert; Hallén, Jostein; Calbet, José Antonio López (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The purpose of this study was to ascertain what mechanisms explain sex differences at task failure and to determine whether males and females have a functional reserve at exhaustion. Exercise performance, cardiorespiratory ... -
A mango leaf extract (Zynamite®) combined with Quercetin has exercise-mimetic properties in human skeletal muscle
Martinez-Canton, Miriam; Galvan-Alvarez, Victor; Garcia-Gonzalez, Eduardo; Gallego-Selles, Angel; Gelabert-Rebato, Miriam; Garcia-Perez, Giovanni; Santana, Alfredo; Lopez-Rios, Laura; Vega-Morales, Tanausu; Martin-Rincon, Marcos; Calbet, Jose Antonio Lopez (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Zynamite PX®, a mango leaf extract combined with quercetin, enhances exercise performance by unknown molecular mechanisms.
