Journal ArticleDOI

DNA sequence variation in the promoter region of the VEGF gene impacts VEGF gene expression and maximal oxygen consumption

TL;DR: VEGF -2578/-1154/-634 haplotype impacts VEGF gene expression in human myoblasts and is associated with Vo2 max, have potential implications for aerobic exercise training and may prove relevant in the study of pathological conditions that can be affected by angiogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ultrastructural muscle damage in young vs. older men after high-volume, heavy-resistance strength training

TL;DR: Young and older men appear to exhibit similar levels of muscle damage at baseline and after chronic HRST, with myofibrillar damage primarily focal, confined to one to two sarcomeres.
Journal ArticleDOI

Strength training normalizes resting blood pressure in 65- to 73-year-old men and women with high normal blood pressure.

TL;DR: The objective was to determine the effects of heavy resistance strength training on resting blood pressure in older men and women and to establish a baseline for this study.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inflammatory factors in age-related muscle wasting.

TL;DR: Inflammatory factors are likely to play an important role in the increased activity of the ubiquitin proteasome, which it is argued should be a primary target for the development of molecular therapeutics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sequence variation in hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF1A): association with maximal oxygen consumption

TL;DR: It is concluded that HIF1A sequence variation is associated with VO2 max before and after aerobic exercise training in older humans.
