Journal ArticleDOI
Three mitochondrial DNA restriction polymorphisms in elite endurance athletes and sedentary controls
Miguel A. Rivera,Bernd Wolfarth,F. T. Dionne,Monique Chagnon,Jean-Aimé Simoneau,Marcel R. Boulay,Thomas M. K. Song,Louis Pérusse,Jacques Gagnon,Arthur S. Leon,D. C. Rao,James S. Skinner,J. H. Wilmore,Joseph Keul,Claude Bouchard +14 more
TL;DR: Results indicate no evidence for a difference in the frequency of two polymorphic restriction sites in the subunit 5 of the NADH dehydrogenase gene of mtDNA and one in the D-loop region between elite endurance athletes and sedentary controls.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evidence of LPL gene-exercise interaction for body fat and LPL activity: the HERITAGE Family Study.
Christophe Garenc,Louis Pérusse,Jean Bergeron,Jacques Gagnon,Yvon C. Chagnon,Ingrid B. Borecki,Arthur S. Leon,James S. Skinner,Jack H. Wilmore,D. C. Rao,Claude Bouchard +10 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that the LPL S447X polymorphism influences the training-induced changes in body fat and post-heparin LPL activity in women but not in men.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plasma glucose, insulin, and glucagon before and after long-term overfeeding in identical twins.
Jean-Michel Oppert,André Nadeau,Angelo Tremblay,Jean-Pierre Després,Germain Thériault,Olivier Dériaz,Claude Bouchard +6 more
TL;DR: Initial levels of glucose, insulin, and glucagon do not predict the gains in body weight and total body fat during overfeeding, but are related to changes in indicators of fat topography and the genotype could be an important determinant of insulin and glucagons responses to a prolonged positive-energy-balance period.
Journal ArticleDOI
Familial resemblance in ventilatory threshold: the HERITAGE Family Study.
Steven E. Gaskill,Treva Rice,Claude Bouchard,Jacques Gagnon,Dabeeru C. Rao,James S. Skinner,Jack H. Wilmore,Arthur S. Leon +7 more
TL;DR: Spouse, sibling, and parent-offspring relationships for VO2vt were significant at baseline, suggesting that both genetic and shared environmental factors may contribute to the familial resemblance in the sedentary state.
Journal ArticleDOI
Apolipoprotein E Polymorphism Modifies Relation of Hyperinsulinemia to Hypertriglyceridemia
Jean-Pierre Després,Marie-France Verdon,Sital Moorjani,M C Pouliot,André Nadeau,Claude Bouchard,Angelo Tremblay,Paul J. Lupien +7 more
TL;DR: The mechanisms by which apolipoprotein E polymorphism modifies plasma lipoprotein levels in a hyperinsulinemic state is not by altering the relationship of abdominal obesity to hyperinsulinemia but more likely by modifying the metabolic fate of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins in hyperins insulinemic, insulin-resistant subjects.
