N-acetylcysteine supplementation increases exercise performance and reduces oxidative stress only in individuals with low levels of glutathione
(2018-02-01)
Most of the evidence indicates that chronic antioxidant supplementation induces negative effects in healthy individuals. However, it is currently unknown whether specific redox deficiencies exist and whether targeted ...
Going retro: Oxidative stress biomarkers in modern redox biology
(2016-09-01)
The field of redox biology is inherently intertwined with oxidative stress biomarkers. Oxidative stress biomarkers have been utilized for many different objectives. Our analysis indicates that oxidative stress biomarkers ...
Principles for integrating reactive species into in vivo biological processes: Examples from exercise physiology
(2016-04-01)
The equivocal role of reactive species and redox signaling in exercise responses and adaptations is an example clearly showing the inadequacy of current redox biology research to shed light on fundamental biological processes ...
Reductive stress after exercise: The issue of redox individuality
(2014-01-01)
Exercise has been consistently used as an oxidant stimulus in redox biology studies. However, previous studies have focused on group differences and did not examine individual differences. As a result, it remains untested ...
Experimental verification of regression to the mean in redox biology: differential responses to exercise
(2016-11-30)
An important methodological threat when selecting individuals based on initial values for a given trait is the “regression to the mean” artifact. This artifact appears when a group with an extreme mean value during a first ...
No effect of antioxidant supplementation on muscle performance and blood redox status adaptations to eccentric training
(2011-06-01)
Background: It was recently reported that antioxidant supplementation decreases training efficiency and prevents cellular adaptations to chronic exercise. Objective: This study aimed to investigate the effects of vitamin ...
No adverse effects of statins on muscle function and health-related parameters in the elderly: An exercise study
(2013-10-01)
The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of a repeated bout of eccentric exercise on health-related parameters and muscle performance on subjects undergoing atorvastatin therapy. Twenty-eight elderly men ...
Aerobic, resistance and combined training and detraining on body composition, muscle strength, lipid profile and inflammation in coronary artery disease patients
(2016-07-02)
Fifty-six elderly individuals diagnosed with coronary artery disease participated in the study and were divided into four groups: an aerobic exercise group, a resistance exercise group, a combined (aerobic + resistance) ...
