      The study aimed to determine the levels of skeletal muscle angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2, the SARS-CoV-2 receptor) protein expression in men and women and assess whether ACE2 expression in skeletal muscle is ...
    • Exercise mitigates the loss of muscle mass by attenuating the activation of autophagy during severe energy deficit 

      Martin-Rincon, Marcos; Pérez-López, Antonio; Morales-Alamo, David; Perez-Suarez, Ismael; de Pablos-Velasco, Pedro; Perez-Valera, Mario; Perez-Regalado, Sergio; Martinez-Canton, Miriam; Gelabert-Rebato, Miriam; Juan-Habib, Julian William; Holmberg, Hans-Christer; Calbet, Jose Antonio Lopez (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      The loss of skeletal muscle mass with energy deficit is thought to be due to protein breakdown by the autophagy-lysosome and the ubiquitin-proteasome systems. We studied the main signaling pathways through which exercise ...
    • Treatment of hypertension with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers and resting metabolic rate: A cross-sectional study 

      Pedrianes-Martin, Pablo B.; Martin-Rincon, Marcos; Morales-Alamo, David; Perez-Suarez, Ismael; Perez-Valera, Mario; Galvan-Alvarez, Victor; Curtelin, David; de Pablos-Velasco, Pedro; Calbet, Jose Antonio Lopez (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Hypertension in obese and overweight patients is associated with an elevated resting metabolic rate (RMR). The aim of this study was to determine whether RMR is reduced in hypertensive patients treated with angiotensin-converting ...
