The levels of various enzymes and components of the glycolytic and respiratory pathways of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae have been determined during a step-down, anaerobic-to-aerobic transition. These activities were determined as an adjunct to the respective metabolite data reported in the first paper in this series. It is clear from the data that anaerobic conditions induce an environment conducive to express glycolytic enzyme activities, while manifesting a differential induction/repression effect on oxidative enzymes. An NAD/NADH mediated mechanism is proposed to explain this difference. Of the enzymes assayed only cytochrome c oxidase shows any direct response to oxygen challenge and consequently it is suggested that the assembly of this enzyme is the trigger mechanism and rate-limiting step in aerobic adaptation.

Background: Breakfast is often termed the most important meal of the day. However, its importance to acute and chronic adaptations to exercise is currently not well summarized throughout the literature.

Methods: A narrative review of the experimental literature regarding breakfast consumption's impact on acute and chronic exercise performance and alterations in body composition prior to November 2024 was conducted.

Background: Physical activity, such as running, protects against cardiovascular disease and obesity but can induce oxidative stress. Athletes often consume antioxidants to counteract the overproduction of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species during exercise. , particularly its phycocyanin content, activates the Nrf2 pathway, stimulating antioxidant responses.

Background/objectives: Low energy availability (LEA) can cause impaired reproductive function, bone health issues, and suppressed immune function, and may result in decreased performance and overall health status. The purpose of this study was to investigate adaptions of body composition, blood status, resting metabolic rate, and endurance performance to gain more comprehensive insights into the symptoms of LEA and the adaptive effects in the athlete population (active women (n = 11) and men (n = 11)).

Methods: Three treatments were defined as 45 (EA45, control), 30 (EA30), and 10 (EA10) kcal/kg FFM/day and randomly assigned.

Background/objectives: There is current scientific interest pertaining to the therapeutic effects of olive-derived polyphenols (ODPs), in particular their associated anti-inflammatory properties, following the wealth of research surrounding the physiological impact of the Mediterranean Diet (MD). Despite this association, the majority of the current literature investigates ODPs in conjunction with metabolic diseases. There is limited research focusing on ODPs and acute inflammation following exercise, regardless of the knowledge surrounding the elevated inflammatory response during this time.
