Abstract des Verlegers

Frontiers of Exercise Biology represents the work of selected scientists actively involved in research on current topics related to exercise biology at the cellular level. The 18 papers, presented at the University of Michigan as part of the Big Ten Body of Knowledge Symposium Series, deal with muscle contraction, microcirculation, hyperthrophy, and endocrine and neural responses to exercise. The book is divided into two parts: PART 1: SKELETAL MUSCLE. Stretch and Skeletal Myotube Growth: What is the Physical to Biochemical Linkage?; Relationships of Microvascular Heterogenities to Oxygenation of Skeletal Muscle; Adenosine as a Mediator of Sustained Exercise Hyperemia; Regulation of Connective Tissue Metabolism in Aging and Exercise. PART 2: ENDOCRINOLOGY AND NEUROSCIENCE IN THE EYES OF EXERCISE SCIENTISTS. The Sympathoadrenal System and Exercise: Potential Metabolic Role in the Trained and Untrained States; Exercise and Gastroenteropancreatic (GEP) Function; Effects of Exercise and Physical Training on Fuel Utilization; Insulin Sensitivity and Insulin Secretion; Nigrostriatal Dopaminergic Function in Aging, Exercise, and Movement Initiation; Exercise-related Disturbances in the Menstrual Cycle.
