Lisa C. Loram,Andrea Fuller,Linda G. Fick,T. Cartmell,T. Cartmell,Stephen Poole,Duncan Mitchell +6 more
TL;DR: Inhibiting TNF-alpha is unlikely to be effective in managing inflammatory muscle pain, but other cytokines, notably IL-1beta and CINC-1, may prove useful therapeutic targets.
Journal ArticleDOI
Brain and abdominal temperatures at fatigue in rats exercising in the heat
TL;DR: In this study, brain temperature was higher than abdominal temperature throughout exercise; that is, selective brain cooling did not occur when body temperature was below the level limiting exercise.
Journal ArticleDOI
