Genomic predictors of the maximal O2 uptake response to standardized exercise training programs

TLDR
These genomic predictors of the response of Vo(2max) to regular exercise provide new targets for the study of the biology of fitness and its adaptation to regular Exercise.
Abstract
Low cardiorespiratory fitness is a powerful predictor of morbidity and cardiovascular mortality. In 473 sedentary adults, all whites, from 99 families of the Health, Risk Factors, Exercise Training...

The Pleiotropic Effect of Physical Exercise on Mitochondrial Dynamics in Aging Skeletal Muscle

TL;DR: Combined physical activity programs should be individually prescribed to maximize the antiaging effects of exercise, due to the different effect of both exercises in improving mitochondrial content and quality.
Journal ArticleDOI

Advances in exercise, fitness, and performance genomics in 2011.

TL;DR: It is concluded that a strong exercise genomics corpus of evidence would not only translate into powerful genomic predictors but also have a major effect on exercise biology and exercise behavior research.

Physiological Differences Between Low Versus High Skeletal Muscle Hypertrophic Responders to Resistance Exercise Training: Current Perspectives and Future Research Directions.

TL;DR: Other molecular and physiological variables which could potentially affect the skeletal muscle hypertrophic response to resistance exercise training are also discussed including rDNA copy number, extracellular matrix and connective tissue properties, the inflammatory response to training, and mitochondrial as well as vascular characteristics.

Inter-Individual Responses of Maximal Oxygen Uptake to Exercise Training: A Critical Review

TL;DR: In this paper, a literature search through the relevant bibliographic databases resulted in the identification of six relevant studies that were published prior to the influential HEalth, RIsk factors, exercise Training And GEnetics (HERITAGE) Family Study.

Physical Activity And Health: A Report Of The Surgeon General

TL;DR: This report is the first report of the Surgeon General on physical activity and health, and strong evidence is shown to indicate that regular physical activity will provide clear and substantial health gains.

Common SNPs explain a large proportion of the heritability for human height

TL;DR: Evidence is provided that the remaining heritability is due to incomplete linkage disequilibrium between causal variants and genotyped SNPs, exacerbated by causal variants having lower minor allele frequency than the SNPs explored to date.

Changes in Physical Fitness and All-Cause Mortality: A Prospective Study of Healthy and Unhealthy Men

TL;DR: Men who maintained or improved adequate physical fitness were less likely to die from all causes and from cardiovascular disease during follow-up than persistently unfit men.

Twelve type 2 diabetes susceptibility loci identified through large-scale association analysis

Benjamin F. Voight, +183 more
- 01 Jul 2010 - 
TL;DR: By combining genome-wide association data from 8,130 individuals with type 2 diabetes and 38,987 controls of European descent and following up previously unidentified meta-analysis signals, 12 new T2D association signals are identified with combined P < 5 × 10−8.
