Acute and delayed effects of an exhaustive bout of exercise on landing biomechanics in women and men

Creator:: Kipp, Kristof
Abstract:: Although female athletes are at greater risk of non-contact knee injuries than men, the factors that contribute to these injuries are not well understood. One important question is whether intense exercise influences the risk of knee injury, both acutely and over the following days. The purpose of this study was...

Age-related alterations in transcriptional regulation of hepatic glutathione synthesis : remediation by R-alpha-lipoic acid

Creator:: Shenvi, Swapna V.
Abstract:: Glutathione (GSH) is the predominant low molecular weight thiol antioxidant in liver tissue. GSH plays an important role in maintaining the intracellular thiol redox ratio as well as detoxification of electrophiles and xenobiotics. Aging leads to a significant decline (35%; P ≤ 0.05) in hepatocellular GSH levels. Using young (2-4...

An allometric examination of the relationship between radiosensitivity and mass

Creator:: Bytwerk, David Paul
Abstract:: The results of a review of six decades of existing literature for 50% lethal dose data across a range of phyla are presented. The collected 50% lethal dose data is limited to adult organisms subjected to acute doses of gamma radiation. The data collected is examined to determine whether useful...

An ecological analysis of adolescent females' perseptions of sex : implications for onset of sexual intercourse

Creator:: Rink, Elizabeth
Abstract:: This study explores the intrapersonal and interpersonal ecological factors that influence adolescent females' perceptions of sex and the extent to which their perceptions of sex impact onset of sexual intercourse as they mature. Particular attention is given to how depression influences individual, personal and social factors in an adolescent female's...

Antimicrobial effects of wine on enteric pathogens in a model stomach

Creator:: Just, Jessica R.
Abstract:: There have been several epidemiological studies linking alcohol consumption to a decreased risk of contracting illness from foodborne bacterial contamination. To study this phenomenon, we examined the survival of Escherichia coli 0157:H7 and Salmonella typhimurium in grape juice and wine and then designed a model stomach to investigate the effect...

Antioxidant mechanisms of ascorbate and (R)-α-lipoic acid in aging and transition metal ion-mediated oxidative stress

Creator:: Shu, Jung Hyuk
Abstract:: Oxidative stress is the major driving force behind the aging process and many age-related diseases. However, direct experimental evidence of whether antioxidants, such as ascorbate (AA) and lipoic acid (LA) can slow the progression of aging process and/or reduce risks of developing degenerative disease is largely absent. This suggests a...

Application of toxicogenomics to determine mechanism of tumor modulation by dietary indole phytochemicals in hepatocellular carcinoma

Creator:: Tilton, Susan C.
Abstract:: Indole-3-carbinol (I3C) and 3,3'-diindolylmethane (DIM), a primary I3C derivative in vivo, are known chemopreventive agents available as dietary supplements. I3C was found to suppress or enhance tumors in several animal models. Chemoprotection is attributed to the ability of indoles to alter carcinogen metabolism effectively blocking initiation. However, mechanisms for enhancement...

Assessment of the acute sensorimotor and neurocognitive effects of repeated heading of a soccer ball

Creator:: Arthur-Banning, Skye
Abstract:: Several recent studies have revealed that high caliber European professional soccer players often have diminished levels of neurological functioning, yet no study has been able to identify the specific aspect of soccer participation responsible for these decreases. In an effort to identify a source of mild traumatic brain injury present...

Bone gains in adolescent athletes and non-athletes

Creator:: Rinder, Todd Anthony
Abstract:: Discordance in bone mass between young adult swimmers and soccer players may be a direct result of differences in bone loading patterns that influence bone mineralization during growth. Our aim was to evaluate whether sports participation (soccer and swimming) had an independent effect on bone mass accrual at the hip...

Bone mineral density and rowing exercise in older women

Creator:: McNamara, Adrienne J.
Abstract:: Studies in young women show that rowing exercise is osteogenic at the spine. However, little is known regarding rowing exercise and spine bone mineral density in older women. The aim of this study was to examine differences in spine bone mineral density (BMD) and back strength between premenopausal and postmenopausal...
