Zinc Homeostasis in Exercise: Implications for Physical Performance
Zinc is involved in numerous metabolic functions, including energy metabolism, immunity and antioxidant activity [1]. The majority of zinc is found within the musculoskeletal system as part of protein complexes. In addition to providing structural stability for proteins, zinc also acts as a cofactor for metalloenzymes, including lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and carbon...
متن کاملPhysical and immunological aspects of exercise in chronic diseases.
Physical inactivity and sedentary lifestyles are believed to be independent risk factors for the occurrence of numerous diseases, including, obesity, Type 2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome, cardiovascular disease, cancer and mental health, all leading to substantial morbidity and/or premature death. It has been found that regular exercise, is associated with better quality of life and health outco...
متن کاملTryptophan-kynurenine pathway is dysregulated in inflammation, and immune activation.
The kynurenine (Kyn) pathway is the major route for tryptophan (Trp) metabolism, and it contributes to several fundamental biological processes. Trp is constitutively oxidized by tryptophan 2, 3-dioxygenase in liver cells. In other cell types, it is catalyzed by an alternative inducible indoleamine-pyrrole 2, 3-dioxygenase (IDO) under certain pathophysiological conditions, which consequently in...
متن کاملThiol homeostasis and supplements in physical exercise.
Thiols are a class of organic sulfur derivatives (mercaptans) characterized by the presence of sulfhydryl residues. In biological systems, thiols have numerous functions, including a central role in coordinating the antioxidant defense network. Physical exercise may induce oxidative stress. In humans, a consistent marker of exercise-induced oxidative stress is blood glutathione oxidation. Physi...
متن کاملThe Kynurenine Pathway Is a Double-Edged Sword in Immune-Privileged Sites and in Cancer: Implications for Immunotherapy
The term "immune privilege" was originally coined to describe the suppression of inflammatory responses within organs protected by anatomic barriers, ie, the eyes, brain, placenta, and testes. However, cellular and metabolic processes, which orchestrate immune responses, also control inflammation within these sites. Our current understanding of tolerogenic mechanisms has extended the definition...
