6. Skeletal muscle responses to physical activity in health and metabolic disease
Abstract : Sedentary lifestyles, characterised by a lack of physical activity and prolonged periods of sitting, have been linked to reductions in whole-body metabolic flexibility and the increased risk of metabolic diseases, including type 2 diabetes. This can be attributed, at least partially, to the direct negative effects of physical inactivity on skeletal muscle insulin sensitivity, oxidative capacity, and overall metabolic health. READ MORE

7. Effects of anti-inflammatory drugs on human skeletal muscle adaptations to resistance training
Abstract : Previous studies in young adults suggest that non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) may impair early skeletal muscle responses to exercise. Whether chronic use of NSAIDs affects skeletal muscle adaptations to resistance training in young adults remains uncertain. READ MORE

8. Vascular effects of prostacyclin in cat skeletal muscle and in the traumatised rat brain
Abstract : Disturbances in microvascular function may be important for tissue damage in many disease states. Prostacyclin, a substance produced by endothelial cells, is important for the maintenance of normal vascular homeostasis and is a potential drug for treatment of microvascular dysfunction, but indications and optimal dosage remains to be established.

9. Identification of abnormally expressed genes in skeletal muscle contributing to insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes
Abstract : The metabolic defects of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes can result from changes in gene expression and protein functions due to genetic and environmental influences. The aim of this study was to identify abnormally expressed genes associated with insulin resistance or type 2 diabetes, and further to test whether possible defects are inherited or acquired.

10. The role of exercise and exercise-related factors in the control of mitochondrial oxidative function
Abstract : The effects of exercise and exercise-related factors on the control of mitochondrial oxidative function were investigated in human and rat skeletal muscle. Oxidative function was assessed through the measurement of oxygen consumption in chemically permeabilized (skinned) fibers. READ MORE
