Physiological adaptations to resistance training in rats selectively bred for low and high response to aerobic exercise training (2018)
Journal Article
Ahtiainen, J. P., Lensu, S., Ruotsalainen, I., Schumann, M., Ihalainen, J. K., Fachada, V., …Kainulainen, H. (2018). Physiological adaptations to resistance training in rats selectively bred for low and high response to aerobic exercise training. Experimental Physiology, https://doi.org/10.1113/ep087144

The purpose of this study was to determine whether rats selectively bred for low and high response to aerobic exercise training co-segregate for differences in muscle adaptations to ladder-climbing resistance training. Five high-responder (HRT) and f... Read More about Physiological adaptations to resistance training in rats selectively bred for low and high response to aerobic exercise training.

The metabolic and molecular mechanisms of hyperammonaemia and hyperethanolaemia induced protein catabolism in skeletal muscle cells (2018)
Journal Article
Crossland, H., Smith, K., Atherton, P. J., & Wilkinson, D. J. (2018). The metabolic and molecular mechanisms of hyperammonaemia and hyperethanolaemia induced protein catabolism in skeletal muscle cells. Journal of Cellular Physiology, 233(12), 9663-9673. https://doi.org/10.1002/jcp.26881

Hyperammonaemia and hyperethanolaemia are thought to be driving factors behind skeletal muscle myopathy in liver disease i.e. cirrhosis. Despite this, the singular and combined impacts of ethanol and ammonia induced protein catabolism are poorly defi...

Tart cherry concentrate does not enhance muscle protein synthesis response to exercise and protein in healthy older men (2018)
Journal Article
Jackman, S. R., Brook, M. S., Pulsford, R. M., Cockcroft, E. J., Campbell, M. I., Rankin, D., …Bowtell, J. L. (2018). Tart cherry concentrate does not enhance muscle protein synthesis response to exercise and protein in healthy older men. Experimental Gerontology, 110, 202-208. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.exger.2018.06.007

Background: Oxidative stress and inflammation may contribute to anabolic resistance in response to protein and exercise in older adults. We investigated whether consumption of montmorency cherry concentrate (MCC) increased anabolic sensitivity to pro...

Environmental hypoxia favors myoblast differentiation and fast phenotype but blunts activation of protein synthesis after resistance exercise in human skeletal muscle (2018)
Journal Article
Gnimassou, O., Fernández-Verdejo, R., Brook, M., Naslain, D., Balan, E., Sayda, M., …Deldicque, L. (2018). Environmental hypoxia favors myoblast differentiation and fast phenotype but blunts activation of protein synthesis after resistance exercise in human skeletal muscle. FASEB Journal, 32, https://doi.org/10.1096/fj.201800049rr

We hypothesized that a single session of resistance exercise performed in moderate hypoxic (FiO2: 14%) environmental conditions would potentiate the anabolic response during the recovery period spent in normoxia. Twenty subjects performed a 1-leg kne...
