The Hsp72 and Hsp90a mRNA responses to hot downhill running are reduced following a prior bout of hot downhill running, and occur concurrently within leukocytes and the vastus lateralis
(
Frontiers Media S.A.
, 2017 , Article)
The leukocyte heat shock response (HSR) is used to determine individual's thermotolerance. The HSR and thermotolerance are enhanced following interventions such as preconditioning and/or acclimation/acclimatization. However, ...
Chronic probiotic supplementation with or without glutamine does not influence the eHsp72 response to a multi-day ultra-endurance exercise event.
(
NRC Research Press
, 2017 , Article)
Probiotic and glutamine supplementation increases tissue Hsp72, but their influence on extracellular Hsp72 (eHsp72) has not been investigated. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of chronic probiotic ...
Hot and Hypoxic environments inhibit simulated soccer performance and exacerbate performance decrements when combined
(
Frontiers Media S.A.
, 2016 , Article)
The effects of heat and/or hypoxia have been well-documented in match-play data.However,large match-to match variation for key physical performance measures makes environmental inferences difficult to ascertain from soccer ...
Hypoxic Air Inhalation and Ischemia Interventions Both Elicit Preconditioning Which Attenuate Subsequent Cellular Stress In vivo Following Blood Flow Occlusion and Reperfusion.
(
Frontiers Media
, 2017 , Article)
Ischemic preconditioning (IPC) is valid technique which elicits reductions in femoral blood flow occlusion mediated reperfusion stress (oxidative stress, Hsp gene transcripts) within the systemic blood circulation and/or ...

Muscle-damaging exercise 48 h prior to a maximal incremental exercise treadmill test reduces time to exhaustion: is it time to reconsider our pretest procedures?
(
Taylor & Francis
, 2017 , Article)
Pretest guidelines typically stipulate that no exercise should be
performed 48 h prior to a maximal incremental exercise ðMIEÞ test.
However, no study has specifically investigated if this timescale
alters key outcome ...
Limiting the Rise in Core Temperature During a Rugby Sevens Warm-up With an Ice Vest.
(
Human Kinetics
, 2019 , Article)
Determine how a cooling vest worn during a warm-up could influence selected performance [counter movement jump (CMJ)], physical (GPS metrics) and psycho-physiological (body temperature and perceptual) variables. In a ...
Appetite and gut hormone responses to moderate-intensity continuous exercise versus high-intensity interval exercise, in normoxic and hypoxic conditions
(
Elsevier
, 2015 , Article & Report)
This study investigated the effects of continuous moderate-intensity exercise (MIE) and high-intensity interval exercise (HIIE) in combination with short exposure to hypoxia on appetite and plasma concentrations of acylated ...
Breaking up prolonged sitting with moderate-intensity walking improves attention and executive function in Qatari females
(
Public Library of Science
, 2019 , Article)
Background Cultural, environmental and logistical factors promote a sedentary lifestyle within Qatar, particularly for females. Sedentary behaviour is acutely associated with poor cognitive function and fatigue, and ...
Tyrosine Ingestion and Its Effects on Cognitive and Physical Performance in the Heat
(
American College of Sports Medicine
, 2016 , Article)
Purpose: Ingestion of tyrosine (TYR), a
catecholamine precursor, has previously improved aspects of cognitive function and mood during acute stress, although there is limited
research exploring the optimal dose relative ...
