ABSTRACT L-Glutamine (Gln) has traditionally not been considered a nutrient needed in
diets for livestock species or even mentioned in classic animal nutrition textbooks. This is …

Recent evidence shows divergence between the concentrations of extracellular 70 kDa heat
shock protein [eHSP70] and its intracellular concentrations [iHSP70] in people with type 2 …

This study tested the hypothesis that L-glutamine (Gln) or L-alanyl-L-glutamine (Ala-Gln)
prevents oxidant-or endotoxin-induced death of neonatal enterocytes. Enterocytes of …

Human prion protein and prion-like protein misfolding are widely recognized as playing a
causal role in many neurodegenerative diseases. Based on in vitro and in vivo experimental …

The earth's climate is changing and increasing ambient heat levels are emerging in large
areas of the world. An important cause of this change is the anthropogenic emission of …

The aims of this study were to investigate the sarcomeric accumulation and expression of
heat shock proteins (HSPs) after two bouts of maximal eccentric exercise. Twenty-four …

Cells have evolved multiple and sophisticated stress response mechanisms aiming to
prevent macromolecular (including proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids) damage and to …

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 …

Chronic inflammation is involved in the pathogenesis of several metabolic diseases, such as
obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). With the recent worldwide outbreak of …

This review examines the current status of sodium bicarbonate as an ergogenic aid. It builds
on previous reviews in the area. Current research would suggest that as an ergogenic aid, a …
