16. Intracellular signaling in human skeletal muscle following different modes of exercise
Abstract : Resistance and endurance exercise when performed regularly will cause specific adaptations in human skeletal muscle. Resistance exercise is known to increase strength and muscle mass while endurance training increases vascularisation and mitochondrial density which results in enhanced oxidative capacity. READ MORE

17. Fuel and fly: adaptations to endurance exercise in migrating birds
Abstract : Birds on migration alternate between consuming fuel stores during flights and accumulating fuel stores during stopovers. This thesis highlights some of the ways in which migrating birds have adapted to the different demands of fuelling and flight. Most of the time on migration is spent at stopover sites accumulating fuel stores. READ MORE

18. Cardiovascular health in children and adolescents with obesity : prevalence, prediction and supervised exercise
Abstract : Background: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a major cause of death worldwide and is preceded by a long process in which several cardiovascular (CV) risk factors are present, sometimes already in childhood. Some of these risk factors such as non-dipping blood pressure and microvascular endothelial dysfunction and possible associated factors are little studied among children with obesity. READ MORE

19. The kynurenine pathway in body and brain : relation with physical exercise and mental health
Abstract : The kynurenine pathway of tryptophan degradation is the focus in a variety of research fields and several of the metabolites produced along the pathway are suggested as future biomarkers. Growing interest in a better understanding of the physiological and the pathophysiological importance of kynurenine pathway metabolites is followed by the need for a robust, sensitive method that can quantify multiple metabolites simultaneously.

20. Environmental regulation of metabolism : from transgenerational effects of nutrition to acute effects of exercise
Abstract : The incidence of metabolic disease has risen rapidly in the last half-century leading to both individual suffering and a burden to society. The importance of physical activity for metabolic health is well known. Furthermore, there is increasing evidence that parental food choice and obesity can affect the metabolic health of future generations. READ MORE
