Cardiorespiratory Fitness and Performance Adaptations to High-Intensity Interval Training: Are There Differences Between Men and Women? A Systematic Review with Meta-Analyses by Merilyn Lock (9440240)

“…Sub-grouping by baseline training status and intervention length decreased heterogeneity in most groups. A qualitative synthesis of other outcomes indicated similar improvements in fitness and performance for men and women with some evidence suggesting differences in the mechanisms of adaptation.…”

eIF4A inhibition prevents the onset of cytokine-induced muscle wasting by blocking the STAT3 and iNOS pathways by Zvi Cramer (10742876)

“…Here we show that hippuristanol, a compound that impedes eIF4A in a manner distinct from PatA, similarly inhibits the iNOS/NO pathway and cytokine-induced muscle wasting. …”

Effects of vitamin E derivatives on the proliferation of KG-1 leukemic cells in vitro by Rizk, Sandra

“…XTT cell viability assay, which detects the presence of metabolically active cells, was used to assess cell proliferation. A decrease in proliferation of KG-1 cells was observed upon treatment with both forms of vitamin E derivatives; however, β-T3 was more potent than γ-T3 in promoting cell death with lower IC50 values. …”
