Journal ArticleDOI
Acetyl-CoA carboxylase exerts strong flux control over lipid synthesis in plants
TL;DR: Results show that acetyl-CoA carboxylase is the major flux controlling enzyme for light-stimulated lipid synthesis in these tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Integrated molecular network modelling revealed differential DNA methylation and miRNA expression changes occur in skeletal muscle in response to chronic exercise training that are most pronounced with endurance training and topographically associated with functional metabolic and microvascular plasticity relevant to diabetes rehabilitation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Psychosocial determinants of fruit and vegetable consumption among students in a New Zealand university. Results of focus group interviews.
TL;DR: Determinants including a negative attitude, a lack of self-efficacy and an unawareness of dietary guidelines/health consequences should be considered when developing interventions for New Zealand university students with lower fruit and vegetable intake, whilst a variety of different delivery channels should be used.
Journal ArticleDOI
South Pacific Islanders resist type 2 diabetes: comparison of aerobic and resistance training.
William R Sukala,Rachel Page,David S. Rowlands,Jeremy D Krebs,Isabelle Lys,Murray Leikis,Jan Pearce,Birinder S Cheema +7 more
TL;DR: This study did not demonstrate an improvement in HbA1c with exercise in morbidly obese Polynesian people, and future investigations involving exercise regimens that are more practicable and which involve greater frequency and duration of training may be required to induce significant and clinically meaningful adaptations in this unique diabetes population.
Journal ArticleDOI
Performance and Health Benefits of Dietary Nitrate Supplementation in Older Adults: A Systematic Review
TL;DR: Positive effects of dietary NO3− supplementation in older adults on physiological performance, with some evidence indicating benefits on cardiovascular and cerebrovascular health are indicated, while effects on cognitive performance were mixed and studies on metabolic health indicated no benefit.
