Structural Variations In Circulating Lipopolysaccharide May Increase Severity Of Exercise-Induced Heat Illness, Skylar Wright
Structural Variations In Circulating Lipopolysaccharide May Increase Severity Of Exercise-Induced Heat Illness, Skylar Wright
University Scholar Projects
Previous investigations at the Falmouth Road Race (FRR; Falmouth, MA) suggest that combined exercise, heat, and dehydration stress increase circulating lipopolysaccharide, associated binding proteins, and downstream immune signaling. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a component of gram-negative bacterial membranes, may be released into circulation from the gut with increased gastrointestinal permeability observed post-exercise. Circulating LPS activates host immune cell signaling that can lead to inflammatory responses that upregulate pro-inflammatory gene expression (eg TNF-α, IL-1β), which if unchecked, may lead to pathophysiology (eg cell pyroptosis, exertional heat stroke (EHS), and sepsis). While subjects of the 2015 FRR (n=30) had elevated core temperature …

Interference Of The Inflammasome Via Interferonβ, Madeline Sauer
Interference Of The Inflammasome Via Interferonβ, Madeline Sauer
Honors Theses
Metabolic disorders such as type two diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and obesity are known to have a chronic low grade inflammatory tissue environment as well as an increase in excess lipids. Current research suggests that a tightly regulated oligoprotein complex known as the NLRP3 inflammasome is highly activated in T2DM and obesity. However, it is not well understood the interplay between excess lipids, which was previously shown in our lab to cause lysosome damage, and inflammation. A key transcription factor that is known to have both an inflammatory effect as well as an effect on lipid metabolism is PPARγ. For this …

The Effects Of Contralateral Exercise On Patient Pain And Range Of Motion, Smokey Fermin, Lindsay Warren, Sarah Beene, David Wetzel
Health Sciences Faculty Scholarship
Clinicians are commonly tasked with treating patients suffering from range of motion (ROM) deficits, pain, or both. Treatment options intended to increase ROM, decrease pain and restore function are vast. Often interventions are used that focus on a singular symptom location (e.g., stretching and joint mobilizations) although a long-standing call exists to utilize global approaches to treating dysfunction. This review was conducted to determine whether evidence exists to support the use of contralateral exercise (CE)to treatROM deficits or pain.

Patellar tendinopathy (PT) occurs in approximately 40% of elite jumping athletes. Players will typically play through the pain; however, if the condition is not successfully treated some are forced to retire from sport. Research has shown that there are no signs of chemical inflammation in the tendon, but rather the presence of a degenerative tendon with collagen disorientation and disorganization.

How Much Protein Can The Body Use In A Single Meal For Muscle-Building? Implications For Daily Protein Distribution, Brad Jon Schoenfeld, Alan Albert Aragon
How Much Protein Can The Body Use In A Single Meal For Muscle-Building? Implications For Daily Protein Distribution, Brad Jon Schoenfeld, Alan Albert Aragon
Publications and Research
Controversy exists about the maximum amount of protein that can be utilized for lean tissue-building purposes in a single meal for those involved in regimented resistance training. It has been proposed that muscle protein synthesis is maximized in young adults with an intake of ~ 20–25 g of a high-quality protein; anything above this amount is believed to be oxidized for energy or transaminated to form urea and other organic acids. However, these findings are specific to the provision of fast-digesting proteins without the addition of other macronutrients. Consumption of slower-acting protein sources, particularly when consumed in combination with other …
