Purpose: The present study investigated the effect of unpleasant salty or bitter tastes on cycling sprint performance and knee-extensor force characteristics in different fatigue states.
Methods: Following a familiarization session, 11 trained male cyclists completed 3 experimental trials (salty, bitter, and water) in a randomized crossover order. In each trial, participants cycled at 85% of the respiratory compensation point for 45 minutes and then, after a 5-minute rest, completed a 1-minute sprint.

Aims/hypothesis: Quinine, when administered intraduodenally to activate bitter-taste receptors, in a dose of 600 mg, stimulates glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and insulin, slows gastric emptying and lowers postprandial glucose in healthy people, with consequent implications for the management of type 2 diabetes; the effect of quinine on energy intake is uncertain. We have investigated the dose-related effects of quinine on postprandial blood glucose levels and energy intake in people with type 2 diabetes.
Methods: Male participants with type 2 diabetes (age: 68±5 years; HbA: 49.

Malaria, caused by parasitic protozoans of the Plasmodium genus, continues to be one of the greatest global health crises, especially in Africa. The emergence of antimalarial drug resistance continues to be a health problem necessitating an urgent need for alternative and cost-effective antimalarials. Using a molecular hybridization approach, we report the design and synthesis of an efficacious novel class of antiprotozoal agents; (E)-1-(4-(4,6-diphenylpyrimidin-2-yl)piperazin-1-yl)-3-phenyl prop-2-en-1-one derivatives (8a-r).

A series of 2-(trifluoromethyl)-4-hydroxyquinoline derivatives were designed and synthesized with introduction of the antibacterial fragment amino alcohols, and their antibacterial activity against plant phytopathogenic bacteria was evaluated for the development of quinoline bactericides. It is worth noting that compound exhibited excellent antibacterial activity with a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) value of 3.12 μg/mL against ().
