The effect of the acute submaximal exercise on thrombin activatable fibrinolysis inhibitor levels in young sedentary males.

Depending on type, duration, and intensity of the exercise, changes occur in hemostasis. In this study, we evaluated the changes in the parameters of coagulation and fibrinolytic systems that happened after the submaximal aerobic exercises by bicycle ergomater. Twelve healthy male participants whose ages were between 21 and 28 have been included.

Protective effect of an adenosine A1 receptor agonist against metamidophos-induced toxicity and brain oxidative stress.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of different doses of an adenosine A(1) selective agonist, phenylisopropyl adenosine (PIA), on metamidophos-induced cholinergic symptoms, mortality, diaphragm muscle necrosis, and brain oxidative stress. A LD(50) dose of metamidophos (20 mg/kg body weight, p.o.

Antioxidant and antiapoptotic activities of deprenyl and estradiol co-administration in aged rat kidney.

Aging is a progressive degeneration process in living organisms. Deprenyl is an irreversible monoamine-oxidase B inhibitor which has antioxidant, antiapoptotic and neuroprotective effects. Estradiol is also a neuroprotective and antioxidant hormone.

Effect of acute and chronic exercise on oxidant-antioxidant equilibrium in rat hippocampus, prefrontal cortex and striatum.

Although regular physical exercise is beneficial to the body, it is well known that exhaustive exercise causes oxidative stress in muscle. Recent studies suggest that regular moderate physical exercise has the beneficial effects on brain. There is a little information regarding whether or not exercise could generate oxidative stress in the brain and the findings are conflicting.

Acute exhaustive exercise does not alter lipid peroxidation levels and antioxidant enzyme activities in rat hippocampus, prefrontal cortex and striatum.

Although regular physical exercise is beneficial to the body, it is well known that exhaustive exercise causes oxidative stress in muscle. Recent studies suggest that regular moderate physical exercise has the beneficial effects on brain. However, there is little information regarding whether or not exhaustive exercise could generate oxidative stress in brain and the findings are conflicting.

The effects of regular aerobic exercise in adolescent period on hippocampal neuron density, apoptosis and spatial memory.

It is known that positive effects of regular aerobic exercise on cognitive functions in humans and also animals; but how to the effects of aerobic exercise in adolescent period is unknown. The present study examined the effects of regular aerobic exercise on spatial memory using the Morris water maze, cell density and apoptosis of hippocampus in adolescent rats. Twenty-two days of age male rats were run on a treadmill for 30 min/session at a speed of 8m/min and 0 degrees slope, five times a week for 8 weeks.
