Journal ArticleDOI
Isokinetic muscle strength and capacity for muscular knee joint stabilization in elite sailors.
TL;DR: A "functional" H/Q ratio of 0.8-1.0 observed for all subjects indicated a significant functional capacity of the hamstring muscles for providing muscular stability at the knee joint in fast knee extension.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of arm-cranking on leg blood-flow and noradrenaline spillover during leg exercise in man
TL;DR: It is concluded that addition of arm cranking to leg cycling increases leg noradrenaline spillover and decreases leg vascular conductance but leg blood flow remains unchanged because of a simultaneous increase in mean arterial blood pressure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Type VI collagen turnover-related peptides—novel serological biomarkers of muscle mass and anabolic response to loading in young men
Anders Nedergaard,Shu Sun,Morten A. Karsdal,Kim Henriksen,Michael Kjaer,Yunyun Lou,Yi He,Qinlong Zheng,Charlotte Suetta +8 more
TL;DR: The results strongly indicate that these markers represent novel biomarkers of muscle mass or change in muscle mass in young men, and cannot rule out the possibility that these biomarkers in part stem from other tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diminished epinephrine response to hypoglycemia despite enlarged adrenal medulla in trained rats
Bente Stallknecht,Michael Kjaer,Kári J Mikines,L. Maroun,Thorkil Ploug,Tetsuo Ohkuwa,Jørgen Vinten,Henrik Galbo +7 more
TL;DR: In rats strenuous endurance training causes an enlargement of the adrenal medulla, however, possibly reflecting an adaptation within the central nervous system to reduced blood glucose levels induced by repeated exercise bouts, the epinephrine response to insulin-induced hypoglycemia is markedly diminished after training.
Journal ArticleDOI
Training by low-frequency stimulation of tibialis anterior in spinal cord-injured men.
Stephen D. R. Harridge,Jesper L. Andersen,Andreas Hartkopp,Shu Zhou,Fin Biering-Sørensen,C Sandri,Michael Kjaer +6 more
TL;DR: Evidence is provided, at the level of gene transcription, that a fast‐to‐slow change in MHC isoform composition may be possible in human muscle when its usage is significantly increased.
