Journal ArticleDOI
Breaking Up Prolonged Sitting Reduces Postprandial Glucose and Insulin Responses
David W. Dunstan,Bronwyn A. Kingwell,Robyn N. Larsen,Genevive N Healy,Genevive N Healy,Ester Cerin,Marc T. Hamilton,Jonathan E. Shaw,Jonathan E. Shaw,David A. Bertovic,Paul Zimmet,Paul Zimmet,Jo Salmon,Neville Owen,Neville Owen +14 more
TL;DR: Interrupting sitting time with short bouts of light- or moderate-intensity walking lowers postprandial glucose and insulin levels in overweight/obese adults and may improve glucose metabolism and potentially be an important public health and clinical intervention strategy for reducing cardiovascular risk.
Journal ArticleDOI
Muscular Strength Training Is Associated With Low Arterial Compliance and High Pulse Pressure
David A. Bertovic,Tamara K. Waddell,Christoph D. Gatzka,James D. Cameron,Anthony M. Dart,Bronwyn A. Kingwell +5 more
TL;DR: The data indicate that both the proximal aorta and the leg arteries are stiffer in strength-trained individuals and contribute to a higher cardiac afterload.
Journal ArticleDOI
Acute effects of active breaks during prolonged sitting on subcutaneous adipose tissue gene expression: an ancillary analysis of a randomised controlled trial.
Megan S. Grace,Melissa F. Formosa,Kiymet Bozaoglu,Kiymet Bozaoglu,Audrey Bergouignan,Audrey Bergouignan,Audrey Bergouignan,Marta Brozynska,Marta Brozynska,Andrew L. Carey,Camilla Bertuzzo Veiga,Parneet Sethi,Francis Dillon,David A. Bertovic,Michael Inouye,Michael Inouye,Neville Owen,Neville Owen,David W. Dunstan,David W. Dunstan,Bronwyn A. Kingwell +20 more
TL;DR: Preliminary insight is provided into the adipose tissue regulatory systems that may contribute to the physiological effects of interrupting prolonged sitting and how these systems are regulated through regulation of skeletal muscle gene and protein expression and modulation of adipocyte cell cycle.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ephedrine activates brown adipose tissue in lean but not obese humans
Andrew L. Carey,Melissa F. Formosa,B. Van Every,David A. Bertovic,David A. Bertovic,Nina Eikelis,Gavin W. Lambert,Victor Kalff,Stephen J. Duffy,Stephen J. Duffy,Martin H Cherk,Bronwyn A. Kingwell,Bronwyn A. Kingwell +12 more
TL;DR: BAT can be activated via acute, oral administration of the sympathomimetic ephedrine in lean, but not in obese humans.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of breaking up prolonged sitting on skeletal muscle gene expression
Celine Latouche,Jeremy B. M. Jowett,Andrew L. Carey,David A. Bertovic,Neville Owen,David W. Dunstan,Bronwyn A. Kingwell +6 more
TL;DR: Insight is provided into the muscle regulatory systems and molecular processes underlying the physiological benefits induced by interrupting prolonged sitting and the effects of chronic inactivity on expression of some specific genes.
