Mammalian cells have developed a range of adaptations to survive against acute and prolonged (but not lethal) stresses (Beckmann et al. 1992). Among these adaptations, the heat shock response is most conserved, being found in all prokaryotes eukaryotes (Locke Noble 1995). Heat proteins (HSPs) are considered part family known as “stress proteins” since their expression induced by wide stressors, such oxidative stress (Krause 2007), thermal (Yang 1996), ischaemia (Richard exercise metabolic...
This study aimed to compare the effect of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) with moderate-intensity continuous (MCT) on endothelial function, oxidative stress and clinical fitness in patients type 1 diabetes. Thirty-six diabetic (mean age 23.5 ± 6 years) were randomized into 3 groups: HIIT, MCT, a non-exercising group (CON). Exercise was performed stationary cycle ergometers during 40 min, times/week, for 8 weeks at 50-85% maximal heart rate (HRmax) HIIT 50% HRmax MCT. Endothelial...
eHSP72 (extracellular heat-shock protein 72) is increased in the plasma of both types diabetes and positively correlated with inflammatory markers. Since aging associated a low-grade inflammation IR (insulin resistance), we aimed to: (i) analyse concentration elderly people determine correlation insulin resistance, (ii) effects on β-cell function viability human rodent pancreatic β-cells. Fasting blood samples were collected from 50 older [27 females 23 males; 63.4±4.4 years age; BMI (body...
This study aimed to describe and compare ballet dancers' cardiorespiratory responses, muscle damage oxidative stress levels during a class (practice of isolated exercises performed with barre/hand-rail support across-the-floor movements improve technical skills) rehearsal choreography involving technical-artistic skills performance for shows). The 12 advanced female dancers undertook three exercise sessions: maximum effort test, rehearsal. Heart rate (HR) oxygen consumption (VO2) were...
Regular resistance exercise is associated with metabolic, neuromuscular and cardiovascular adaptations which improve quality of life health. However, sedentary subjects have shown acute impairments in endothelial function after high-intensity exercise. The aim this study was to evaluate middle-aged men a single session at different intensities. Eleven (40.1 ± 3.9 years; 27.3 1.4 kg/m2) underwent three conditions assessment: (1) knee extension moderate intensity (MI) [4 sets 12 repetitions...
Ballet stage performances are associated with higher cardiorespiratory demand than rehearsals and classes. Hence, new interest is emerging to create periodized training that enhances dancers' fitness while minimizing delayed exercise-induced fatigue possible injuries. Finding out in what zones of intensity dancers work during different ballet movements may support the use supplemental adjusted needs individual dancer. Therefore, main purpose this study was describe oxygen consumption (VO2)...
Dancing has been recommended as a suitable home-based physical activity during the quarantine period associated with COVID-19 pandemic. can reduce sedentary behavior and thereby maintain emotional health. The aim of this article was to provide support dance, fitness, and/or other health professionals in guiding individuals wishing practice dancing activities at home. By considering strategy increase levels home, is divided into three sections: i) structure dance session, ii) elements aerobic...
