Crocin, an active ingredient derived from saffron, is one of the herbal components that has
recently been considered by researchers. Crocin has been shown to have many anti …

The role of capillaries is to serve as the interface for delivery of oxygen and removal of
metabolites to/from tissues. During the past decade there has been a proliferation of studies …

Purpose The objective of this study is to evaluate the effects of blood flow restriction (BFR)
on muscle oxygenation during low-intensity resistance exercise as well as postexercise …

Injury of skeletal muscle, and especially mechanically induced damage such as contusion
injury, frequently occurs in contact sports, as well as in accidental contact sports, such as …

In skeletal muscle, growth of capillaries is an important adaptation to exercise training that
secures adequate diffusion capacity for oxygen and nutrients even at high‐intensity exercise …

Redox reactions control fundamental processes of human biology. Therefore, it is safe to
assume that the responses and adaptations to exercise are, at least in part, mediated by …

Aims: Both aerobic and resistance exercise training promote skeletal muscle angiogenesis.
Acute aerobic exercise increases several pro‐angiogenic pathways, the best characterized …

Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a common vascular disease that reduces blood flow
capacity to the legs of patients. PAD leads to exercise intolerance that can progress in …

Several cytokine families have roles in the development, maintenance, and remodeling of
the microcirculation. Of these, the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) family is one of …

A major immunopathological feature of Coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) is excessive
inflammation in the form of “cytokine storm”. The storm is characterized by injurious levels of …
